The son crosses every night

Gu Tangyu's enthronement ceremony was extremely grand.

As his most trusted younger brother, Tang Hua has always been by his side.

Beginning before dawn in the morning, offering sacrifices to heaven and ancestors, surrounded by majestic soldiers, the grand and solemn Chinese music rang in my ears all the time.

After tossing around until noon, he returned to the imperial city after the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven.

Tanghua was wearing a heavy dress and followed behind his elder brother. He didn't have time to eat, and finally had lunch until noon, and all civil and military officials ate sacrificial meals.

One piece of cold chicken, duck and fish meat is given to each person. Tang Hua's status is particularly respected, and he also got a huge piece.

All these things had to be eaten, and Tang Hua was so choked that he almost rolled his eyes.

Gu Tangyu saw his younger brother's appearance during the ceremony, and comforted him in a low voice: "Be patient."

"I'm fine." Tang Hua helped Gu Tangyu tidy up and said in a low voice, "Brother, I won't be eating dinner here."

"Over there again?"

"Well, I'll go over and have a look later, I'll sleep over there at night, okay?"

"The dinner is a bit more useful. You can leave after I retire. You have to be here for the first palace banquet." Gu Tangyu looked up at his younger brother, and said in a low voice: "It's okay to go to sleep over there. Don't mention it, I still count on you Help me."

Tang Hua responded in a low voice, "Then I'll go there after the palace banquet."

Gu Tangyu glanced at him, "Nothing."

"I'm going to be busy for a whole day. Should I go over there and relax? Brother, hurry up and get married, and you'll know when the time comes."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Gu Tangyu glared at him, "Be prepared to finish today's ceremony first!"

"Yes, yes, I understand."

After worshiping the ancestors of heaven and earth in the morning, the official enthronement and the opening of the dynasty will be held in the afternoon.

In the magnificent and solemn Qinzheng Hall, the pure gold dragon chair stands high on it, shining with a faint light.

The eunuch's thin and high-pitched voice echoed in the solemn meeting hall, "At the beginning of the great dynasty, all the ministers entered the hall—"

All the officials walked quickly in small steps according to their seniority, and quickly entered the palace.

"The Emperor is here—"

All the ministers knelt on the ground and shouted long live, the voice was so loud that Tang Hua was in a trance.

He looked up subconsciously, and saw that his elder brother was sitting at the top, full of majesty.

Tang Hua was in a trance for a moment.

"The first item in this dynasty is to award meritorious officials—"

The eunuch's high-pitched voice rang out, pulling Tang Hua's mind back. He collected himself and listened carefully.

"Gu Shenyou, sincere and honest, diligent and strict, transporting grain and grass, mobilizing troops and horses, has made great achievements in the army, the people and the country, I hereby confer the title of Prince Ning with a first-class assistant—"

Tanghua didn't expect that he would be the first one. He raised his head, and Gu Tangyu, who was on the throne, smiled encouragingly at him.

Tang Hua knelt down and kowtowed to thank him silently.

The eunuch's solemn voice echoed, and the ministers knelt down to thank each other silently, like wheat blown down by the wind.

Tanghua is the only second prince of Dasheng Dynasty, the other is their father, Prince Dingning.

Gu Tanghan is King Han, Meng Cunrui is General Guiyuan, Jiang Pingyuan is General Qunan, and Ye Zhi is Uncle Zhongqin.

Other heroes who are not familiar with Tanghua have titles, large and small.

The list read down line by line, and Tang Hua listened carefully.

It took the eunuch more than half an hour to finish reading the list, which shows the large scale of the award.

Tang Hua estimated that in the next ten years, these people in the main hall would be the mainstay of the imperial court.

The first opening of the court lasted from afternoon to night, until the moon rose and the lights came on. Gu Yuyu retreated from the court, and the guards led the officials to turn to the banquet hall.

The meritorious officials who have been rewarded sit at small tables according to their ranks, having a banquet and enjoying singing and dancing.

Tang Hua sat at the front table in the lower right corner, next to his elder brother.

He is a prince, one person is less than ten thousand people, his father is still recuperating at the border, and has not returned, no one can sit with him.

The singing and dancing in the hall was peaceful.

With the new emperor here, no one would dare to let go.

Gu Tangyu drank three glasses of wine before leaving first.

After Tang Hua waited for him to leave, he made a toast to Ye Zhi and Jiang Pingyuan from a distance, and followed behind.

He was a little drunk, and after he went out, someone told his elder brother, and then he brought someone out of the palace

The little eunuch who followed him was busy carrying a lamp to lead the way, and then called for someone to carry his shoulders over.

"I'll do it." A gentle male voice came from behind.

Tanghua recognized the voice as soon as it passed his ears, and he looked at Jiang Pingyuan in surprise, "Uncle, Pingyuan, why are you here?"

Ye Zhi said lightly: "I will escort you back."

Jiang Ping said in principle: "It's been a long time since I went with you, so I'll go back with you."

Tang Hua looked at him and smiled, "OK, then let's go."

Tang Hua left the palace and got into the carriage with Jiang Pingyuan's support.

He Hua took the coachman and quietly drove to Tang Hua's new house. This was the second prince's original house. The house covers an area of ​​over a hundred acres, with pavilions, pavilions, artificial mountains and rivers, everything you expect.

Tang Hua did not say that he lived alone, even if he brought all his servants to live in, it would still be empty.

In the end, Gu Tangyu couldn't stand it anymore, and personally assigned nearly a hundred court ladies and eunuchs to take care of him.

"Uncle, Ping Yuan, go back to sleep with me today."

Jiang Pingyuan smiled: "Don't you want to go over there?"

"Yes, but I feel at ease when you sleep next door." Tang Hua put his hands behind his head and pillowed on the soft wall of the carriage covered with several layers of cotton wool, "Pingyuan, do you remember when we were young? I was always afraid when I was young. , and you slept with me."

"Why don't you remember?" Jiang Pingyuan stuffed a pillow behind his head, with a smile in his eyes, "At that time we started playing as soon as we fell asleep, and my mother beat my ass several times, telling me not to take it with me at night. you play."

Tang Hua thought back to the time when they were young, when they always liked to roll around, mischievous every day, without stopping.

His mother has a good temper and doesn't stick to them.

At that time, King Jingning was not in the mansion, and the concubine didn't care about them.

His mother is a formal concubine, and her life is quite comfortable.

The thing that Tanghua loved to do most when he was a child was to lead Jiang Pingyuan around the courtyard. As long as he avoided the princess and Gu Tanghan, no one could do anything to them.

He still remembered that the little girl and guards who followed them got a little sunburn one summer, and his mother was shocked when she saw it.

Time passed very slowly at that time, and in a blink of an eye, they had grown up, and their days were far more ups and downs than imagined.

Tang Hua turned his face sideways, turned to Ye Zhi, blinked his drunken eyes, "Uncle, if only you were here at that time."

Ye Zhi patted him on the shoulder and didn't speak.

Tang Hua asked again: "Uncle, what kind of people are grandfather and the others?"

When Tanghua's mother died, he was still young, and he almost never heard his mother mention his natal family. When he grew up, he had nowhere to ask, and he never knew the situation of his natal family.

When this question was mentioned, Ye Zhi paused, and then said: "Your grandfather and the others were from military households, and they worked under King Jingning before."

"What happened later? Why did my mother marry my father?"

"Later——" Ye Zhi's eyes became misty, and he simply took it after he came back to his senses, "There is nothing to say later, your grandfather died in battle, and your grandmother died of illness, so I was left with my sister, who married me. Your father is dead. Later, the prince asked someone to let me learn art from a teacher, and I have been studying for more than ten years since I went."

Tang Hua didn't expect to hear this, and felt sad.

Ye Zhi rubbed the back of his head with his palm, "Don't think about it, it's all over. Your grandfather is a hero who died for the country. Later, when I returned from my studies, I killed my enemy and took her head to your grandfather's grave in person. There was a sacrifice."

"Uncle." Tang Hua looked at his face and called out seriously.

Ye Zhi asked: "What's wrong?"

"you are great!"

Ye Zhi smiled a little, "You are also very good."

Tang Hua asked, "Uncle, what do you want to do next?"

"Let's go for a walk." Ye Zhi said, "Dasheng is such a beautiful mountain and river, I haven't gone to see it yet."

Tang Hua turned his head and asked, "Ping Yuan, what about you?"

Jiang Pingyuan looked at him, "I'll fix the shantang. The young master said that education is the foundation of a century-old plan."

"My son, what about you?"

When Ye Zhi heard Jiang Pingyuan's question, he also turned to look at Tang Hua.

Tang Hua blinked his drunken eyes with some confusion, and murmured: "Me? I want to lay a foundation for Dasheng to accumulate national strength, preferably for more than 500 years."

If Dasheng can last for more than 500 years, the accumulation of science and technology will allow it to directly enter modern times.

With so many years of peace and accumulation, the life of the people will not be bad.

At that time, if the political system can be smoothly transitioned to the separation of powers, Dasheng may be able to continue into modern times.

Tang Hua has no ambitions, but only wants to protect the safety of the region and the safety of the dynasty.

The country is thriving, and the people live and work in peace and contentment.
