after being kidnapped by the general

Just halfway through Yuan Li's words, Yuan Song and Chen Shi were already stunned.

They... they want to be the emperor and queen mother?

Yuanli is going to be the emperor? !

Yuan Song's hands trembled uncontrollably, and half of the hot tea in his hands was spilled.

His face was flushed red and he was short of breath, "You, you, you really want to be the emperor?"

Yuan Li smiled and nodded.

Yuan Song slumped on the chair.

Thinking back a few years ago, when he was conferred the title of Marquis of Guannei by the late emperor with the help of his son, Yuan Song thought that was the limit. To be able to be a marquis at the beginning was smoke from the ancestral grave.

When the first emperor wanted to bestow characters on Yuanli, what he thought was that Yuanli should not be bestowed by the first emperor. Otherwise, in the chaotic world, if the Northern Zhou Dynasty were really overthrown by others, his son Yuanli would only make others dislike and loathe him.

Yuan Song never thought that Yuan Li was the one who overthrew the Northern Zhou regime...

Who would have thought?

Who would have thought that there would be an emperor in their family?

From a small county magistrate, he himself has become the Supreme Emperor!

Yuan Song was so excited and flustered that he almost pouted.After he couldn't believe it, tears welled up in his eyes.

His mouth was trembling, and his legs were trembling too.Yuan Song thought in a mess, patriarch, you didn't die in vain, Yuan Li became the emperor, Yuan Lou and Yuan Dan became the founding hero, and their family will be relatives of the emperor in the future!

Chen was also dizzy. She held her forehead in a murmur and kept repeating, "Am I going to be a queen mother? Do I really want to be a queen mother? I... I have never been a queen mother."

Seeing them like this, Yuan Li felt it was even more funny. He comforted his parents a few words, but no matter what he said at the moment, Yuan Song and Chen could not calm down, they were already extremely excited.

Yuan Li asked them if they wanted to go to Luoyang, and the couple nodded quickly without a moment's hesitation.

This is the son's Zen ceremony, and the son will be the emperor in the future, how could they not go!

Even if they are ten years older, no matter how long and rough the road is, they still have to climb over it and witness the glorious scene with their own eyes!

Yuan Song has already made a plan. When he returns to Ruyang, he will open the ancestral hall, worship the ancestors of the past, and tell them the happy event of an emperor in the Yuan family.

The two of them were immersed in excitement, and neither cared about talking to Yuan Li and Chu Hechao.

Yuan Li secretly took Chu Hechao away from Yuan Mansion.

The snow is getting bigger and bigger.

When it snows, it's not as cold as when it melts, especially when the two of them just drank hot tea and ginger soup, Yuanli only felt that his palms and soles were still sweating.

There are almost no pedestrians on the road, and the snow can bury the entire ankle.There is also palm-thick white snow on the dead trees by the roadside, and it falls tremblingly when the wind blows.

Yuan Li and Chu Hechao walked side by side, and after walking for a while, Chu Hechao held Yuan Li's hand.

Yuan Li dragged Chu Hechao to step on the clean snow. After leaving a clear footprint in the snow, he looked at Chu Hechao eagerly and motioned for Chu Hechao to step on the side too.

Chu Hechao ruthlessly refused, "I won't do that when I was [-]."

I don't know where this sentence hit Yuanli's smile, and he suddenly bent over laughing because his smile was already very low, and he was about to burst into tears.

Chu Hechao skillfully supported him, with a little helplessness in his eyes, "Tell me, I'm so funny."

Yuan Lixiao leaned on him, supported Chu Hechao's strong arm and said, "Then am I Yuan Sui?"

"Le Jun, how can you say that about yourself?" Chu Hechao held Yuan Li's face and kissed it, opened his mouth to bite Yuan Li's lip, and sighed authentically, "You are clearly not even a year old."

Yuanli: "..."

He was so angry that he immediately rolled up a snowball and threw it on Chu Hechao.

Chu Hechao raised his eyebrows and smirked, he also rolled up the snowball and threw it back.

Yuan Li flashed sharply, and just as he was about to give him a provocative smile, another larger snowball hit him precisely in the face.

Yuan Li swore that he definitely heard Chu Hechao's muffled laugh.

"..."

well.

Yuan Li rolled up his sleeves, thinking with a sneer, his fighting spirit was completely aroused.

Yuanli is young, no matter how old he is, in Chu Hechao's eyes, he is still the boy he was back then, with a lot of playfulness, but the world of government affairs suppresses Yuanli's playfulness.So no matter what Yuanli did, Chu Hechao was happy to cooperate. He had never had fun like this when he was a teenager. I have to say that Chu Hechao actually had a lot of fun.

But it was winter after all, Chu Hechao was the first to call a stop.He knelt down and touched Yuanli's boots, the skin was already soaked in snow, Chu Hechao was afraid that Yuanli's entire pair of shoes would be soaked if he walked on, so he carried Yuanli to the mansion.

Yuan Li watched his every move, sometimes it was hard to imagine.The irritable and suspicious Chu Hechao before was willing to do this for him and be so careful.

His heart softened into a puddle of water, Yuan Li obediently wrapped his arms around Chu Hechao's neck, and rubbed his man's back, "Why are you so nice."

Chu Hechao couldn't suppress the smile at the corners of his mouth and eyes, he turned Yuanli up, dragged his wife's butt to scare people, and said, "Since you know I'm good, then stick to your man more."

The corner of Yuanli's mouth twitched,

"How do you want me to cling to you?"

Chu Hechao thought about it seriously, and thought that it would be fine if you could lie on my waistband and not let go, and said, "Think about it yourself."

Yuan Li tightened his arms and wanted to sigh, "Aren't I clinging to you enough now?"

"Not enough," Chu Hechao lazily said, "You'd better hold me at night and don't let go. While I'm still here, stick to me as soon as you can. After I die, you won't be able to stick to me if you want to. "

Yuan Li suddenly became angry, and he opened his mouth so angry that he bit Chu Hechao's shoulder.

Chu Hechao let out a "hiss", but still supported him firmly with both hands, "It hurts! Why bite me?"

The person on the back let go of his mouth, but did not speak.

Chu Hechao felt a little flustered, and asked tentatively, "Le Jun?"

Yuanli still didn't speak.

Chu Hechao became even more flustered, and said in a low voice, "Daughter-in-law, I was wrong, I shouldn't talk nonsense."

Yuanli remained silent.

Chu Hechao put him down, turned around and faced Yuanli, only to find that Yuanli's eyes were red.

The man immediately regretted it, and coaxed in a low voice, "Don't cry, don't cry, I will never say such things again."

Yuan Li looked at him for a while, then his eyes moved to Chu Hechao's hair.

He carefully looked at the forehead from the sideburns, and the end of the hair from the front, and when he didn't see a single white hair, his tense mind finally relaxed.

Yuan Li said with a strong nasal voice, "You are not old."

"Well, I'm not old," Chu Hechao echoed, "I'm young and strong. Every night, I'm so fierce that you can't stand it. How can I be considered old?"

Yuan Li frowned, "Be serious."

Chu Hechao sighed, raised his arms and hugged Yuan Li, "I'm just afraid, Le Jun. I'm afraid that after 40 years, I'll leave before you. I don't want to part with you, and I'm also afraid that you will feel bad."

As he said that, Chu Hechao was already worried in advance. He kissed Qin Yuanli's hair, "What if I leave and you stay and get bullied? I can't see it and I can't control it. If I want to vent my anger on you Can't do it."

His voice was low, wrapped in wind and snow, "I'm afraid I can't help you."

As soon as he said this, Yuan Li's heart was sore as if he had eaten a dozen unripe green fruits, and his tears were suffocating, "No."

Chu Hechao didn't say anything anymore, he smiled, nodded and said, "Okay, if you say no, you won't. I won't talk about this in the future."

Yuan Li knew that he would always remember this matter in his heart until he died.

The eight-year age difference has always been a knot in Chu Hechao's heart.

Yuan Li took off the glove on his right hand, as well as Chu Hechao's, and held hands with his palms.

Snowflakes fluttered and fell on their hands.

Yuan Li said: "Do you think it's too late to meet me, and too little time to spend with me?"

Chu Hechao responded, as if saying love words: "It would be even better if I could meet you sooner."

"But when you and I met, I was at my best age," Yuan Li said with a smile, "no matter sooner or later, we are lucky to meet each other. We have been together for nearly ten years, who said we can't be together for another 50 or 60 years Woolen cloth?"

Chu Hechao thought about the words "no matter sooner or later, it is lucky to meet you", and finally let out a breath, "You are right."

Even though Chu Hechao felt that five or sixty years was not much, he didn't need to say this again to make Yuanli sad.Only the present day needs to be cherished. As for the future, let's talk about it later.

They walked home step by step hand in hand, white snow fell on their hair, in a trance, it seemed that they had reached their white heads.

In the spring of the next year, Yuanli set off for Luoyang.

The thousands-mile-long team was long and majestic, including the ministers, princes, generals and officials of Wenguo.At the same time, governors from all over the country also rushed to Luoyang, preparing to participate in the Zen ceremony.

Lu He of Liangzhou actively supported Yuanli, and under the threat of Yuanli's troops, Qingzhou Hui Zizhen and Yanzhou Che Kangbo also took the lead in bowing their heads to Yuanli.

Zheng Rong, who is far away in Luoyang, has already restored Luoyang to its former prosperity in the past five years, and the palace has also been repaired.

After learning that the lord and the emperor will hold the Zen ceremony and the founding ceremony in the palace, Zheng Rong was so excited that he couldn't sleep at night, and urged the maids in the palace to clean the palace again and again, preparing for the arrival of the lord.

Ouyang Ting came to Luoyang by boat, faster than Yuan Li and others.When he arrived, neither Yuanli nor the emperor had arrived.

Zheng Rong knew that Ouyang Ting was a great Confucian in the world, and what was even more rare was that Ouyang Ting also understood rites and music, so he hurried over to ask Ouyang Ting about the etiquette process of the Zen throne ceremony and the founding ceremony.

Zheng Rong was born in a bad family, and had never been exposed to the etiquette of these upper-class nobles, let alone the major event of the change of the old and new dynasties, so he was naturally in a hurry.When Ouyang Ting saw it, his brows frowned, and he immediately found several old eunuchs in the palace and some old friends who knew rituals and music, and rolled up his sleeves to help organize the Zen ceremony and the founding ceremony.

When Yuanli came to Luoyang, everything had been arranged in an orderly manner.

He stood in front of the palace gate, looking at the majestic palace shining golden under the sun, and led Chu Hechao, his parents, and courtiers into it together with a smile.

The day of the Zen ceremony was fixed on August [-]st.

Yuanli's dragon robe has been made, and now he is stepping up to try it on Yuanli to change the inappropriate parts.All departments are anxiously preparing for the final finishing touches, trying to ensure that there will be no omissions or mistakes.

On the night before the meditation ceremony, no one fell asleep.

The members of the Yuan clan seemed to be in a dream, nervous and looking forward to tomorrow's arrival.Yuanli's subordinates have been looking forward to this day for many years. Even after being tired for many days, they are full of energy, and they can't wait to open their eyes until dawn.

How could they fall asleep on such a day?

Zhou Gongdan, Liu Jixin, Wang Er, Wu Kai... kept their eyes open until dawn.

When it was dawn, the whole Luoyang began to be busy.

August [-]st was a fine day, with a gentle breeze and thick clouds covering the scorching sun, providing shade to the ministers.

Hundreds of officials, marquis, and governor stood in the huge open space of the palace, solemnly waiting for the ceremony to begin.

Soldiers in armor have already surrounded the place layer by layer, one person at ten steps, his eyes scanning the inside and outside like a falcon.

When the time came, several drums sounded at the same time, followed by the loud and melodious horn, and the music spread throughout the palace.

The emperor sat on the throne and began to read the edict of abdication.

This process has been rehearsed before, and the emperor is familiar with it. The abdication edict was revised by the officials of the Political Affairs Hall, and the emperor has already read it well.

In such an atmosphere, the Son of Heaven swallowed nervously several times, his voice sometimes louder and sometimes quieter, but because the officials were silent, his words seemed to have echoes, and everyone could still hear them clearly.

"...Zhen Zen is located in Wen Gongyuan. I hope to hear the hearts of the police at home and abroad, and the righteousness of the world. I will give the emperor the crime of comforting me... this."

After reading the edict, the servant next to the emperor took the edict and trotted to Yuanli, bent down and handed it over respectfully.

Yuan Li received the edict, looked up at the emperor sitting on the dragon chair a hundred steps away, and suddenly realized that he was really going to become the emperor.

He turned 28 years old, and finally became the founding emperor of the Dawen Dynasty in the summer of this year.

As if he finally had a sense of reality, Yuanli's chest was beating faster and faster.

Under the guidance of his servant, he walked to the high position on the altar step by step.

Everyone's eyes were on Yuan Li, watching the founder of the new dynasty approach the throne step by step.

Some people were already blushing with excitement, some were pious and respectful, and some were filled with tears.

at last.

They finally waited for this day.

The emperor has stood up from the throne, waiting for Yuanli to come to his side.

Yuan Li's eyes swept over the people around him, from the faces of governors and sheriffs to the faces of his subordinates.

The drums became more and more solemn and urgent, and the horns continued endlessly.

Yuan Li's heart was beating violently, thumping, thumping, his eyes became brighter and brighter, as if hiding the brilliance of the scorching sun.

Chu Hechao stood at the front on the left side of His Highness, Yuan Li exchanged a last look with him, and stood next to the emperor on the altar.

The emperor looked at him earnestly, "Mr. Wen, everything will be left to you from now on."

Yuanli called himself a minister for the last time and said, "I obey."

The waiters waiting on both sides came running quickly, took off the courtier's dress on Yuan Li, and changed Yuan Li into the emperor's costume.For the emperor, he took off the emperor's uniform and put on the marquis crown.

Doctor Yushi took the seal from the hand of the emperor and handed it to Yuanli respectfully.

Yuan Li fixedly looked at the seal for a moment, then glanced at Chu Hechao and others in the audience, and raised his hand to take it.

The moment he took over the seal, the system that had not moved for several years made a sound.

【Emperor cultivation system has been activated. 】

[The host has reached the final goal, and it is detected that the AR special effect has not been used for 20 seconds, and it will take effect in 3 seconds. 】

【3, 2, 1...】

The golden light suddenly exploded in the sky of Luoyang.

Everyone looked up in surprise and saw a dragon's tail floating between the thick clouds.

"It's a dragon! It's a dragon——!"

"It's the Golden Dragon!"

The scared Baiguan and Liehou's legs were weak, they stared at the sky dumbfounded, and then fell to their knees on the ground.

The golden dragon was several feet long, majestic and majestic, it seemed as if it was about to ride the clouds and come riding on the clouds.It poked its head out from the clouds and sang loudly. The sound of the dragon's chants resounded through the heaven and earth, making all things vibrate and surrender.

The people of Luoyang outside the palace also heard the dragon chant, they ran to the street in a daze and raised their heads, and saw the golden dragon with teeth and claws.

There were endless exclamations, and the farmers, merchants, and soldiers guarding the city all knelt on the ground with weak legs, fearful and pious.

In a blink of an eye, Luoyang City was already full of people kneeling down.

In the palace city, the only ones who didn't kneel down were Yuan Li and Chu Hechao, who had already seen Yuanli's miracles.

The two of them looked at each other, and heard a loud and clear bird cry. Everyone looked quickly and saw a huge fiery red and beautiful phoenix flying from the east, soaring around the golden dragon.The dragon and the phoenix play and play with each other intimately. This sacred and magnificent scene makes everyone hold their breath and keep their eyes on it.

Zhou Gongdan murmured: "The dragon and the phoenix bring prosperity..."

As soon as the words fell, the golden dragon and phoenix who were playing together suddenly rushed towards the palace.In the blink of an eye, these two behemoths rushed in front of them.

"what!"

Many people screamed in fright, their faces turned pale, they crawled back on hands and feet, and looked at the golden dragon and phoenix in horror.But in the next moment, the golden dragon circled the new emperor and the phoenix circled Chu Hechao several times, and suddenly turned into golden light and disappeared.

Chu Hechao had a strange expression on his face, but he regained his composure after a while.

The scene fell silent, as if the scene just now was an illusion.

But everyone present could see clearly that the golden dragon and phoenix were definitely not hallucinations.

Such auspiciousness cannot be faked, they have seen it with their own eyes.The people who came back to their senses stared at Yuanli and Chu Hechao in a complicated manner, with respect and awe at the same time.

It turned out that Yuanli belonged to the destiny, and he was the emperor that God favored!Wen Daibei Zhou is the general trend, even if there are people who still hide Xiao Jiujiu in their hearts, they are completely scared and disappear at this time.

As for why Fenghuang circled around Chu Hechao, those who knew the inside story knew it clearly, but those who didn't know the relationship between Yuanli and Chu Hechao forcibly held back the turbulent waves, and dared not say any bad words.

God has sent down such auspicious signs, how dare they say anything more.

While everyone was still immersed in shock, Yuan Li suddenly moved.He stepped forward two steps to the throne, waved his sleeves, turned around and sat on the dragon chair.

Yuanli looked calm, composed and dignified.The beads on the crown swayed lightly, shining golden light on his young and handsome face.

The ministers recovered from the shock, knelt deeply on the ground, surrendered to the authority of the new emperor, and shouted in unison: "I pay homage to Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live."

The drums and horns sounded again, bold and loud, and the sound of shouting "Long Live" passed through the palace walls.

The scorching sun in the sky finally poked its head out from the clouds, its dazzling light hanging high above its head.

Dawen Dynasty was born on this day.

Hear the voice of the people and do what the people want to do.

This vibrant country will eventually rise like the rising sun.
