This year's enthronement ceremony has not yet begun, and it has attracted much attention.It's not quite right to say that, the only enthronement ceremony in the emperor's life will naturally attract the attention of all the people, but Zhu Di's enthronement ceremony is more anticipated than the previous emperor's enthronement ceremony, such as Zhu Yunqi's enthronement ceremony.

There are two reasons why Zhu Di's enthronement ceremony is so anticipated by the people and ministers.The first reason: Zhu Di did not succeed to the throne justifiably, but the throne was snatched by troops. The people and ministers wanted to know whether he would be recognized when he offered sacrifices to the Heaven and Earth Ancestral Temple, and whether there would be any unusual situations.The second reason: It has been rumored that Zhu Di is the real emperor of the real dragon, but Zhu Yunwen is not. The people and ministers want to know whether there will be a real dragon when Zhu Di sacrifices to the Heaven and Earth Ancestral Temple.

Before Zhu Di came to the throne, the real dragon had appeared several times, and many people had witnessed it, but there were still many people who hadn't seen it.Although the real dragon appeared before, it did not appear when Zhu Di came to the throne.If there is still no real dragon in Zhu Di's enthronement ceremony, does it mean that God does not recognize him as the real dragon emperor.

For the ministers who loyally support Zhu Di, they certainly hope that the real dragon will appear.However, for those who hate Zhu Di, they certainly don't want the real dragon to appear.

For the common people, of course they also hope that the real dragon will appear, because in this way they can see the real dragon.

On the day of the enthronement ceremony, many ordinary people climbed onto the roofs of their houses and stared at the direction of the imperial city.

In addition to the roof, there are walls, trees, and city walls full of people.As long as it is a high place, it is full of people.There is no high place to stand, so I built a high place by myself. Many people piled tables or chairs together, piled them high, and then climbed up, which looked like juggling.In short, in order to be able to see the direction of the imperial city clearly, the common people "do whatever it takes" to stand on high places.

Before the start of the enthronement ceremony, the common people discussed fiercely whether there would be a real dragon in the enthronement ceremony later.

In addition to the common people and ministers paying attention to the real dragon, literati and scholars are also very concerned.

The literati and students in Nanjing City are very famous in Ming Dynasty. You must know that there have been many champions in Nanjing.The former Yingtianfu Academy was very famous.

Many literati and scholars looked down on Zhu Di's ascension to the throne, thinking that Zhu Di was a thief who stole his nephew's throne.Besides, Zibuyu is strange, they don't believe that there are gods or real dragons in this world.

If no real dragon appeared at today's enthronement ceremony, these literati students would "make a big fuss".

Zhu Di naturally knew that his enthronement ceremony attracted the attention of the whole world.When he woke up early this morning, he saw that the weather was clear but cloudless, which made him a little worried.

The ministers who had seen the real dragon before looked at the "naked" sky and couldn't help feeling worried.Without clouds, how could the real dragon appear?

Those who participated in the enthronement ceremony felt nervous and worried.If the real dragon did not appear today, the consequences would be disastrous.

"Master, do you think there will be a real dragon today?" Jin Zhong asked Yan in a low voice.

Dao Yan glanced at Jin Zhong, who looked a little worried, and smiled at him comfortingly: "I will!"

Jin Zhong glanced at the sky, frowned slightly and said, "But today there is no cloud, how did this real dragon appear?" Before, when the real dragon appeared, it was because of clouds.

Old God Daoyan said on the ground: "With His Royal Highness here, the real dragon will definitely appear."

"Really, when His Majesty ascended the throne, the real dragon did not appear, and there are no clouds today, so I feel very nervous."

"Amitabha, please rest assured, Mr. Jin."

Seeing Dao Yan's calm expression, Jin Zhong's uneasy heart calmed down a little: "Since the master said so, then I can rest assured."

Not only Jin Zhong was worried.To be precise, of all the people present, only Dao Yan and Zhu Zhanji were not worried, and everyone else was very worried.

At this time, Zhu Zhanji was being led by his father, following behind Zhu Di, walking towards the altar.

Because Zhu Gaochi was too nervous, his heart was beating very hard.

"Zhanji."

Hearing his father calling him, Zhu Zhanji looked up and asked in a low voice, "Daddy, what's wrong?"

Zhu Gaochi opened his mouth to say something, but considering that this occasion is not suitable for talking, it is not suitable for asking his worries.

"It's nothing, Dad thought you were still sleepy."

Seeing his father's hesitant expression just now, Zhu Zhanji knew that his father didn't mean to say this.

"I haven't been sleepy for a long time." How could he be sleepy on such an important occasion.

"That's good." Zhu Gaochi thought in his heart, with Zhan Ji around, he should be fine.

Zhu Gaochi looked up at Zhu Di who was walking in front.I saw that his father took every step very steadily and firmly, and his whole body exuded the majesty of the emperor, which made people dare not look directly at him.

Zhu Zhanji noticed that his father had been staring at Grandpa Huang, probably guessed what Zhu Gaochi was going to say just now, and said softly to Zhu Gaochi: "Daddy, Grandpa Huang will be fine."

Hearing this, Zhu Gaochi lowered his head and smiled slightly at Zhu Zhanji: "That's great."

Zhu Gaosui, who was walking behind Zhu Gaochi and his father and son, heaved a long sigh of relief when he heard Zhu Zhanji's words.He was also worried about whether the real dragon would appear later.

As for Zhu Gaoxu, Zhu Di didn't let him participate in the enthronement ceremony. It is conceivable that he was very angry and very sad.However, he also knew in his heart that what happened in Han Palace some time ago was too weird and ominous, and there was nothing wrong with Zhu Di not allowing him to participate in the enthronement ceremony.Intellectually, I think what Zhu Di did was right, but emotionally I can't accept it.He selfishly hoped that no real dragon would appear at his father's enthronement ceremony today.

Because he couldn't attend the enthronement ceremony, Zhu Gaoxu was so angry at home that he drank alcohol and went crazy.

Wei Shi learned that Zhu Gaoxu got drunk and went crazy on such an important day as the enthronement ceremony, and also said a lot of outrageous things, so he asked the nanny to tell the butler to control the mouths of the servants in the mansion.

After a while, Webster will be out of confinement, and then he will make peace with Zhu Gaoxu.However, before reconciling with her, she was still the princess of the Han Dynasty, so she couldn't ignore Zhu Gaoxu.Besides, as a husband and wife for a day, she can't let Zhu Gaoxu mess around.

The butler moved quickly and sealed some people's mouths.After Zhu Gaoxu got drunk and passed out, he personally guarded Zhu Gaoxu and would not let others hear Zhu Gaoxu's "truth" after drinking.

No one cares about Zhu Gaoxu's thoughts.For Zhu Di, his son was not as important as his enthronement ceremony.This was the first and only enthronement ceremony after he became emperor, and he would never allow anyone to destroy his enthronement ceremony, not even his son.

Zhu Di was a little panicked at first, but when he stepped onto the altar, his heart suddenly became very calm, and his whole person's aura also changed, with the power to look down on the world.

First, the music was played, and then Zhu Di knelt down facing the sky, bowed down, and prayed loudly to the sky.Then continue to offer sacrifices to the ancestral temple, and show your identity before prostrating, and then pray for the blessings of the ancestors.

Standing under the altar, Zhu Zhanji and the others followed Zhu Di to worship.

The whole scene was very solemn and sacred, except for the sound of the wind, there was no sound.

After the prostration ceremony, the hearts of all the people present were in their throats at this moment, and they waited anxiously and excitedly for the real dragon to appear.

Zhu Zhanji said in his heart that although he didn't know how to summon the real dragon, at this time, he hoped that the real dragon would appear.

At this time, a dragon-like cloud suddenly appeared in the originally cloudless sky.

I don't know who shouted "True Dragon" rudely, which attracted everyone's attention.

Everyone on the scene raised their heads in unison to look up into the sky, and they really saw the real dragon.

Zhu Zhanji looked up at the "real dragon" that suddenly appeared in the sky, and heaved a long sigh of relief in his heart.I don't know what's going on, but it's good that it's there.

The "true dragon" that appears today is very large, bigger than any that have appeared before.Not only that, but very realistic.

The real dragon that appeared before can also see dragon scales and dragon claws, but this time the real dragon that appeared seems to have eyes.Obviously its eyes are white and there are no eyeballs, but everyone present felt that the real dragon was "looking" at them.

A gust of wind blew, blowing the dragon's beard to flutter gently, and blowing Long Wei to sway slightly.At this moment, everyone felt that the real dragon in the sky was alive.

After a while, they witnessed with their own eyes that the dragon's head hung down little by little in the sky, and a heavy pressure came to their faces.

The ministers who just got up after saluting faced Long Wei who was pressing them down and couldn't breathe, their legs felt weak, and they knelt on the ground obediently.

Except for Zhu Di and Zhu Zhanji who did not kneel down, everyone else knelt down.I saw that their faces were pale and full of fear.

In fact, Zhu Di was also a little weak under the pressure of Long Wei, but he knew he couldn't kneel, so he gritted his teeth and insisted on standing.

Zhu Zhanji tilted his head, and stared straight at the "real dragon" in the sky with a pair of black eyes.It wasn't his illusion, he felt that the "real dragon" in the sky was looking at him and smiling at him.Not only that, it "looked" at him, full of love.

The real dragon in the sky lowered its head again, giving people the illusion that its head can be touched by reaching out.

Zhu Zhanji felt that the "true dragon" was staring at him, as if expecting something.He hesitated for a while, and raised his hand towards the "True Dragon" who seemed to be close at hand.He obviously didn't touch it, but Zhu Zhanji obviously felt that the touch under his hands was hard and smooth.It feels like touching scales.

It must be his illusion!

Zhu Di didn't feel that he reached out to touch the dragon's head, but he didn't touch anything.

Zhu Zhanji found that he "touched" the real dragon, it seemed very happy, and the whole dragon exuded a pleasant atmosphere.

(⊙o⊙)...It is definitely his illusion, or it is his imagination.

Zhu Zhanji found that Zhenlong was looking at him eagerly, as if he wanted to touch him.

He must be hysterical!

Although he thought so in his heart, Zhu Zhanji still couldn't hold back, and raised his hand to touch the dragon's head again.Feeling something hard, naked again.

When Zhu Zhanji touched the dragon's head, the dragon's tail was swaying gently.Like a puppy whose head has been petted, it wags its tail happily.

Zhu Zhanji once again felt the joy of the "real dragon" above.

It must be his hysteria!

The moment the real dragon appeared, the people in the entire Nanjing city were shocked.

Many of them were seeing real dragons up close for the first time.

The real dragon flying over the imperial city was very big, but they could clearly see the dragon head, dragon body, dragon tail, as well as dragon whiskers, dragon scales, and dragon claws.

Although it was a real dragon transformed from clouds, the common people, like the ministers, believed that what they saw was a "live" real dragon.

The huge and heavy dragon's majesty rushed towards the face, and the people knelt on the ground in fear, bowing to the real dragon in the sky very piously.

The literati students were also shocked by this scene, they didn't expect the real dragon to appear.At this moment, there was no doubt in their hearts, only deep awe.They knelt on the ground as devoutly as the common people and kowtowed to the real dragon.

The real dragon that appeared this time was very big, not only for every citizen of Nanjing City to see it, but also for people around Nanjing City to see it clearly.

At this moment, the "true dragon" suddenly raised its head, and then there were voices that shook the world.

It's Dragon Yin!

When they were in Zhenjiang before, many people had heard the dragon chant.However, the dragon's chant at that time was thicker, but today's dragon chant is more clear.

A sound of dragon chant seemed to come from ancient times, shaking the world and making all things worship.

Everyone was terrified and proud at the same time.

The sound of the dragon's chant was obviously louder than the thunder that appeared over the Han Palace some time ago, but it was reassuring to hear and did not feel fear.

But Zhu Zhanji heard joy from the sound of the dragon's chant. Is it because he touched it twice?No way, no way, he must be thinking too much.

Another gust of wind came back, and the real dragon in the sky changed again. The dragon's head and tail formed a circle, covering the whole palace under it.

The ministers and the common people kept bowing to the real dragon, saying words of asking for the protection of the real dragon.

Zhu Di and Zhu Zhanji have been standing, looking up at the real dragon in the sky above.

After a while, the real dragon hovering over the palace suddenly disappeared without leaving any trace.Still the same as before, it appeared suddenly and disappeared very suddenly, without leaving any traces, as if it had never appeared, but the scene just now happened again.

When the "true dragon" disappeared, everyone hadn't reacted yet.

With a thought, Zhu Zhanji knelt down to Zhu Di who was standing on the altar, and shouted loudly: "Long live, long live, grandpa, long live, long live!"

When the others heard Zhu Zhanji's shout, they immediately reflected, and immediately shouted loudly: "Long live the emperor, long live, long live!"

The people in Nanjing City knelt on the ground and shouted in the direction of the imperial city very piously: "Long live the emperor, long live, long live!"

The sound of "Long live the emperor, long live, long live!" went straight into the sky and shook the earth.

Zhu Di stood on the altar, accepting the worship of officials and common people.At this moment, he is the Son of Heaven recognized by heaven and earth, and no one dares to question him, and no one dares to say that he is a traitor!He, Zhu Di, is an upright emperor of the real dragon!

"Be flat!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Zhu Di walked in from the altar and waved to Zhu Zhanji.

Zhu Zhanji was stunned for a moment, and then walked obediently to Zhu Di's side.

Zhu Di took Zhu Zhanji's hand and walked to Fengtian Hall.

When he reached the gate of Fengtian Hall, Zhu Di let go of Zhu Zhanji's hand and walked slowly into Fengtian Hall.

Although he walked through the Fengtian Hall once when he ascended the throne, he also had to go through the enthronement ceremony to accept the congratulations from the officials again.

When he ascended the throne and walked into the Fengtian Hall, Zhu Di was still a little nervous, but when he walked into the Fengtian Hall today, he no longer felt guilty at all, and was full of confidence.

When Zhu Di sat on the dragon chair, all civil and military officials knelt down and kowtowed again.

At this time, the enthronement ceremony was over.

After the end, there will naturally be some series of celebrations.

Not only the palace is celebrating, but Nanjing city is also celebrating.

Today, the people in Nanjing City have seen the real dragon with their own eyes, and they will no longer doubt Zhu Di.Now that they know that Zhu Di is the real Son of Dragon, they will completely believe in Zhu Di.

The common people celebrated that Zhu Di was the real emperor of the real dragon on the one hand, and on the other hand, they celebrated that they saw the real dragon.

Many people suggested building a real dragon temple to worship the real dragon, so that the real dragon would always bless them.

Most of the people living in the capital are very rich. Since they decided to build the Zhenlong Temple, they will really build it.

It is not difficult for folks to build temples, just go to the government to apply.The common people acted very quickly and applied for it in the afternoon.

Generally, there is no objection to the application for building a temple.Besides, this time the application was to build the Zhenlong Temple, so the government would not object.

Because there is no extra land to build temples in Nanjing, the people chose the site outside Nanjing.Of course, before choosing a place, you have to ask the master to look at Fengshui to choose a place.The final location was chosen in the southern suburbs of Nanjing City, a mountain that is not too high but has good Fengshui.

After choosing the address, the common people spontaneously donated money to build the temple.Within a few days, the Zhenlong Temple began to be built.

If the common people want to build the Zhenlong Temple, of course they have to report to Zhu Di.

After Zhu Di learned of this, he was naturally very happy, and said that when the Zhenlong Temple was built, he would personally sign it.

"Ah, do you want to build the Zhenlong Temple?" Zhu Zhanji suddenly thought of something, and said in surprise, "It's not because the people saw the real dragon that day, so the people want to build the Zhenlong Temple, right?"

Zhu Di smiled and said, "Exactly."

Zhu Zhanji: "..." The ordinary people in Nanjing are very powerful, and they build temples when they say they want to build temples.Also, as expected of the people of the capital, they are really good at flattering.No, to be precise, it was a fart, which captured the heart of his grandpa.

"After the Zhenlong Temple is built, Grandpa Huang will take you to see it." In Zhu Di's view, the common people built the Zhenlong Temple to worship their grandparents and grandchildren.Zhu Di is very pleased with the "filial piety" of the people.

"Okay." Zhu Zhanji was very curious about what kind of real dragon temple the common people would build.

Zhu Di reached out and touched Zhu Zhanji's little head, and said lovingly: "It's a good thing for the common people to build the Zhenlong Temple, especially for you."

"To me?" Zhu Zhanji pointed to himself and asked with a puzzled face, "Why?"

"Because you are the real dragon."

"Then Grandpa Huang, you are also a real dragon, so that's good for you."

"Good for both our grandparents and grandchildren."

Empress Xu smiled and said, "This is a good thing."

"No, isn't there a Dragon King Temple in Nanjing?" Before, Zhu Zhanji and Zhu Panxuan went to the Dragon King Temple when they were wandering around the house with Dao Yan.I also bought a lot of food at the entrance of the Dragon King Temple.The candied haws and biscuits at the gate of the Dragon Temple are delicious. "There is the Dragon King Temple, why build a real dragon temple?"

"With the Dragon King Temple, can't we build the True Dragon Temple?"

"Yes." Ordinary people have a lot of money, so they can build it if they want.

"By the way, starting tomorrow, you can study with Yang Shiqi."

"Sir, aren't you busy?"

"He can only teach you every morning." As Zhu Di's confidants, Yang Shiqi and the others were naturally busier than other ministers.However, I can still spend half a day teaching Zhu Zhanji every day.

"It's great, I can finally read with my husband." Zhu Zhanji reads books by himself every day, and he can read well, but he can only understand the superficial meaning, not the deep meaning behind it, so he still needs the teaching of his husband.

"Yang Shiqi is very knowledgeable, you should study hard with him, but don't read dead books, read yourself like a nerd."

"Grandpa Huang, do you think I look like a bookworm?" The reason why Zhu Zhanji likes to read is because he wants to know more.

Zhu Di stretched out his hand and pinched the tender face of his precious grandson, and said amusedly, "Grandpa Huang is afraid that you are too obsessed with reading." I have never seen a child who is so eager to study like Zhanji. "Too obsessed can easily become a nerd."

"Grandfather, don't worry, I won't become a nerd." Zhu Zhanji said with a proud face, "The more I read, the smarter I will become."

Zhu Di rubbed his grandson's little head again, then stood up and said, "Queen, I'm going back to the imperial study first, and I'll come back after lunch."

"Your Majesty, go slowly."

"Grandfather, go slowly."

After Zhu Di left, Zhu Zhanji turned his head and said to Empress Xu: "Grandmother, have you found that Grandpa Huang is in a good mood these days, smiling every day, just like picking up silver."

"Of course your grandpa is in a good mood." The appearance of a real dragon at the enthronement ceremony was witnessed by the entire capital, and no one dared to say that His Majesty is not the real real dragon emperor.

"Did the real dragon appear because of the enthronement ceremony?"

"Yes." Empress Xu smiled, "No one dares to question whether your grandpa is not the real Dragon Emperor."

Zhu Zhanji nodded suddenly: "So it's because of this."

At this time, Bai Hua came in, first bowed to Empress Xu and Zhu Zhanji, and then said respectfully: "Empress Empress, Princess Han please see me."

"Let her in."

Concubine Han Wang gave birth to confinement yesterday, and went to the palace early this morning to meet Empress Xu.

Empress Xu and Zhu Zhanji were stunned when they saw Princess Han who had lost weight several times.They haven't seen each other for more than a month, and Princess Han is so thin that they almost can't recognize her.

Although Princess Han has lost a lot of weight, she is still in good spirits.She first saluted Empress Xu, and then thanked Empress Xu and Zhu Zhanji.

Empress Xu asked her to get up quickly and gave her a seat.Then, he asked about her physical condition with concern.

Concubine Han said that she was in good health and told Queen Xu not to worry.

Empress Xu felt relieved when she saw that her complexion was not bad.He asked about the safety situation again.

Concubine Han didn't bring her son with her when she entered the palace today, because she knew that his son was an ominous thing in the eyes of many people.She told Queen Xu that her son was fine and well-behaved.

Zhu Zhanji found that when his second aunt mentioned peace, he became very gentle.The second aunt used to look a little mean and shrewd, but the second aunt seemed to be a different person after giving birth, and the whole person became much softer.

When Empress Xu learned that her second grandson was fine, she was relieved and distressed at the same time.

Wei Shi didn't dare to stay in the palace for a long time, and asked Empress Xu to issue a decree to make her reconcile with the King of Han, and then she left the palace.

Concubine Han wants to make peace with King Han, but Zhu Di has no objection.

When Webster returned to the Han Palace, Empress Xu's edict would arrive.

Webster calmly accepted the decree of Heli, while Zhu Gaoxu's face was gloomy.

Zhu Gaoxu was not very willing to make peace with Webster.As long as Webster didn't want that child, he would take Webster to Yunnan, but Webster refused.She would rather make peace with Zhu Gaoxu than abandon her son.

After accepting Heli's order, Webster left Hanwang Mansion with his son and mother, and went to Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Nanjing.

This Zhuangzi is not far from the Royal Palace, so there is no need to worry about safety.Empress Xu also rewarded Webster with a lot of land, so that their mother and son would not have to worry about eating and drinking in the future.

Before Webster and the others went to Zhuangzi, Empress Xu specially sent someone to redecorate Zhuangzi to make their mother and son live comfortably.She also rewarded some court ladies and guards to serve their mother and child.Although Webster refused, but Empress Xu insisted on rewarding her, she could only accept it.

Since Zhu Gaoxu lost his concubine, Empress Xu naturally wanted to arrange a concubine for him again.Fortunately, the draft has begun.

Although this was Zhu Di's first draft after he took the throne, it was not very grand, it was Zhu Di's request.

When Zhu Di came to have lunch, Empress Xu told him about the candidates for Zhu Gaoxu's main concubine and side concubine, as well as the candidates for Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Gaosui's side concubines.

The side concubines chosen for Zhu Gaochi and the others this time are all daughters of honorable or aristocratic families.This was done, of course, to appease and win over the nobles or the aristocratic family.

Zhu Di trusted Empress Xu very much and let her make arrangements.

Empress Xu looked at Zhu Zhanji who was eating with his head down, and teased: "Although Zhanji is still young, you can show Zhanji the girl in advance."

"Look at the girl?" Zhu Zhanji raised his head suddenly, and looked at his grandmother in astonishment, "Grandma, I'm not yet four years old, are you going to draft me?" It's too early.

"The emperor's grandmother will help you take a look first." Empress Xu deliberately teased Zhu Zhanji, "I will help you take a look at it first, and when you grow up, you can marry directly."

Zhu Zhanji gave Empress Xu a supercilious look: "Grandmother, it will take at least twelve or three years before I grow up."

"Grandmother can choose slowly." Empress Xu said, "There are quite a few girls who are about your age in these distinguished nobles or aristocratic families."

Hearing this, Zhu Di frowned slightly and said, "Queen, Zhan Ji's concubine should not be selected from these honorable or noble families."

"Your Majesty, why is this?"

"In the future, Zhanji's concubine will be chosen from ordinary people." Zhu Di had already thought about Zhu Zhanji's future marriage.

"what?"

Zhu Di's words stunned Empress Xu and Zhu Zhanji.

"When Zhanji is ten years old, I will start choosing a concubine among the people." Zhu Di said, "When the selection is completed, I will send someone to teach her the rules and etiquette in the palace."

Zhu Zhanji: "!!!!!!"
