To The Land of Nevernight

Tang Shen pondered over what Wang Qin had done, but couldn't figure it out.

Of course he didn't know that Wang Zifeng didn't do anything this time, and he was really wronged.

Wang Qin just talked about Yin Yinsi when he was talking with the emperor, and the two happened to talk about Tang Shen going to supervise Yin Yinsi.Moreover, this topic was completely brought up by Zhao Fu himself. The Yin Yin Division was in charge of Wang Qin, and Tang Shen was going, so Zhao Fu casually said something, and the two of them started talking about Tang Shen.

So Wang Qin waved his sleeves and bowed, and said logically: "Speaking of which, Master Tang's birthday will be two months away. Thinking of this, I think of the ingot of Qingdu jade ink that His Majesty personally bestowed on me during the crowning ceremony nine years ago. , It is really jade floating clear light, rich ink fragrance. Last year, Suichen took it out of the warehouse and wiped it, it is still as brand new."

Zhao Fu suddenly thought: "Is it Tang Shen's coronation ceremony this year?"

Wang Qin said: "Yes."

Zhao Fu was in a daze for a while, and said: "I forgot. Jing Ze was only twenty, and I always felt that he was not younger than Fei Ran."

Thus, Zhao Fu decreed that Tang Shen be crowned in Shengjing City.

The twists and turns were recorded by Zhao Fu in Zhao Fu's Daily Notes on Living, but Tang Shen had no way of knowing.

Tang Shen accepted the decree and was at a loss, but it was time to prepare for the crowning ceremony.

Knowing that Tang Shen was going to hold the crowning ceremony in Shengjing before leaving, Yao San and Feng Bi got busy immediately.The first thing is to go to the Qin Tianjian and ask the officials to perform divination and choose a good day and auspicious day.

Ordinary people can't invite officials from the Qin Tianjian, they can only find some folk Fengshui masters, or even fortune tellers to count a good day for themselves.But officials can go to Qintian Supervisor to invite someone to help their juniors calculate a good crown ceremony day.

Tang Shen is a fourth-rank official. He wants to hold the crown ceremony, and the officials of Qin Tianjian are very attentive.

It is said that Li Xiaoren, the chief inspector of the Qintian Supervisor, heard about this and specially told his subordinates: "Master Tang's coronation ceremony will be given by the Holy Majesty, so don't neglect it. You have to be careful not to make mistakes."

Tang Shen was deeply used by Zhao Fuqi, and before he was crowned, he was sent to Youzhou to supervise the establishment of Yinyin Division.If this is the future, I don't know where it will go.Moreover, he has a strong background. Although he was born in a poor family, he has a majestic family and a great background.Li Xiaoren valued Tang Shen very much, [-]% of which was for the face of Fu Wei and Wang Qin.

The officials of Qin Tianjian personally calculated an auspicious day for Tang Shen, and it happened that it was the sixth day of March this year, which was a good day, and it was also the day before Tang Shen's 20th birthday.

After choosing a date, you have to go to the banquet again, and prepare the costumes and utensils for the crown ceremony.

After handing over these matters to Yao Sanhe and Fengbi, Tang Shen came to Shangshufu.

"Brother, please praise me for the crown and be the guest of honor at my crown ceremony."

Wang Qin said: "Do you know that no matter whether it is a guest of honor or a guest of praise, if it is not a respected elder, then someone without defects should be found to take the position."

Tang Shen asked strangely: "Brother, is there a defect?"

What, he, Wang Zifeng, is already so immortal, so what are his shortcomings?Too handsome?too rich?Too high official?Too much trusted by the emperor?

Wang Qin pointed to himself, and said calmly: "Your senior brother, I have no family yet."

Tang Shen: "..."

It was only then that Tang Shen remembered that Wang Qin hadn't married yet!

After the new year, Wang Qin is already 29.Although in later generations, there are also men who are not married at 29, but it is really not considered early marriage, and it is time to find a partner.Tang Shen said: "Senior brother has high vision, I know it."

"you know?"

"I know. How can an ordinary person be worthy of senior brother? Three months ago, senior brother told me about the women of the right age in Shengjing City. After talking, it seemed that the girl from Mr. Yuan's family, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, was the best among them. But then I heard some things again, and I don't think she is a good match for senior brother."

Tang Shen heard that the girl from Mr. Yuan's family loves to play leaves.Think about it, after dinner, his brother was standing in the courtyard and was about to draw.The sky and night are as cool as water, so it should be the time to sit and watch Altair Vega.Wang Zifeng was dressed in white, and he looked like a fairy, and he could fly away at any time.The girl from Mr. Yuan's family suddenly called a few people and went back to the room to play Ye Zixi.

Tang Shen quickly shook his head and dismissed the picture.

How could this girl be worthy of his immortal senior brother!

At this time, Tang Shen never thought that his senior brother could not only draw and write, but also kill rebels and eliminate traitors.The girl from the Yuan family just likes to play leaf dramas for fun, and you, Wang Zifeng, are going to kill people!

Anyway, it just doesn't deserve it.

As for who is worthy, Tang Shen can't think of it, but it is definitely not the Yuan family girl.

Wang Qin couldn't help laughing: "You know, if Yuan Shangshu heard this, it would be a bloodbath."

Tang Shen was silent, and said: "Even though senior brother is not married, but senior brother is my noble person, I would like to ask senior brother to be my guest of honor."

"it is good."

With Wang Zifeng's promise, Tang Shen has one less thing to worry about.

After returning home, he thought about what he had said to Wang Zifeng today.Tang Shen found Aunt Yao and asked some questions.After hearing this, Tang Shen frowned.

Marriage in ancient times is different from that in later generations.

Although Wang Qin is in his twenties this year, he looks young and handsome, with a high position and a great reputation. There are many girls in Shengjing who want to marry him.If Wang Qin really wanted to marry a girl from Yuan Mu's family, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, even though the relationship between Wang Qin and Yuan Mu was normal now, Yuan Mu would never refuse.

But if things go on like this, senior brother may have to be single for the rest of his life.

Tang Shen thought to himself: "Forget it, at worst, I'll take care of him in the old age." He never thought that he was only nine years younger than Wang Zifeng, and it wouldn't matter who would take care of the other at that time.However, just as this thought flashed through his mind, Tang Shen remembered that year when he was just a candidate, in the garden of Fu Wei's mansion, when he saw Wang Qin, he subconsciously called out "Dad".

"..."

He really became Wang Zifeng's son!

Forget it, forget it, you can't give Wang Zifeng his retirement!

The crown ceremony sounds complicated, but it is also simple.Tang Shen's parents died young, there are no elders in the family, and it is not a big family, so there are not many rules.Therefore, all the procedures of the crown ceremony are kept simple.

In the early morning of the sixth day of March, Tang Shen washed and changed clothes, and came to the temple of Fu Wei's house.

Tanhua's mansion did not have a suitable crowning venue, so Tang Shen borrowed Fu's mansion to hold the crowning ceremony.

On the day of the coronation ceremony, several officials who had good friends with Tang Shen came to the scene to congratulate him.Because Tang Shen was already a fourth-rank official, Qin Tianjian and the Ministry of Rites also came to watch the ceremony.A total of seven or eight Beijing officials in official robes stood on both sides of the Fufu Ancestral Temple and stood in a row along the Qingshiban Road.

At the end of the smooth and green bluestone road, stood Fu Wei.Tang Shen looked aside, and beside Fu Wei was Wang Qin.

In the ancestral temple, white smoke has already ignited in the bronze incense tripod.

Tang Shen was wearing a heavy Xuanduan gown. He tied his long hair into a crown and came to Fu Wei.His left hand is on top and his right hand is on the bottom. He hides his hands in the wide sleeves and kneels on the soft cushion.Fu Wei bowed his head, looking at Tang Shen who is now an adult, feeling a lot of emotion in his heart, but in the end, he just let out a long sigh, full of joy and nostalgia for the old man.

Tang Shen bent down, Fu Wei raised his hand, and Wang Qin took the wooden support he was holding forward a step forward.Fu Wei picked up the black cloth crown made of black linen placed on the leftmost side of the wooden tray, and gently put it on Tang Shen's hair.

Fu Wei's voice was melodious: "I have a student Tang Shen, and now I add a black cloth crown to him. The master said, the king envoys the minister, and the minister serves the king. How about it?"

Tang Shen saluted with both hands, and said loudly: "The king envoys his ministers with courtesy, and the ministers serve the king with loyalty."

Fu Wei: "Good."

In this way, the first crown was crowned successfully, which means that Tang Shen can participate in politics and serve the country.

Then, Tang Shen changed into a plain leather uniform, and came to Fu Wei again, kneeling on the soft cushion with his left hand up and his right hand down.From the wooden tray held by Wang Qin, Fu Wei took the second-placed white buckskin leather bean, and put it on for Tang Shen.

The second crown means that Tang Shen can serve in the military and defend his family and country.

Finally, Tang Shen changed into a vermilion royal uniform, and Fu Wei put on a red and black plain crown for him.

The third crown means that Tang Shen has become an adult, and from now on, he can participate in the sacrificial ceremony.

With the addition of the three crowns, Tang Shen got up, and Fu Wei smiled at him: "Usually speaking, I should give you a character now as a teacher, and give you a character. But you are not very ordinary. You are a 16-year-old high school student, and a 20-year-old official residence." Fourth grade. You already have characters, named Jing Ze. I have nothing to give you as a teacher today, so I wrote a few characters for you."

After Fu Wei finished speaking, the Wen Shu boy at the side immediately took out a scroll of mounted words and slowly unfolded it.

On the snow-white rice paper, there are three big characters flying and dancing, with clear brushwork, falling on the paper.

"The Master said, there are three hundred poems in the Poetry, and it can be summed up in one sentence: Thinking is innocent. 』

The three words that Fu Wei gave to Tang Shen were exactly "Si Wuxie"!

Touched in Tang Shen's heart, he took the writing with both hands, and said, "Students, please remember Master's teachings."

Fu Wei stroked his beard and smiled lightly.

In this way, Tang Shen's coronation ceremony was completely over.

The coronation ceremony is over, but Tang Shen still needs to entertain guests.Because the Tang family was all in Gusu, only Tang Yun was sent all the way to Shengjing to attend Tang Shen's coronation ceremony.In this way, there are not many guests to be entertained today, most of them are officials from Shengjing.

After Tang Shen was busy, these officials congratulated him and congratulated him on being crowned today.Tang Shen also had to return the wine, thank these people for their congratulations.

Fu Wei and Wang Qin were wearing formal dresses and sitting on the chair beside them.

As the sky darkened, the lanterns were lit.Holding the chopsticks, Fu Wei casually pointed at Tang Shen who was too busy to touch the ground.He said: "Zifeng, your junior brother has really grown up now. Five years have passed in the blink of an eye, five years."

Wang Qin drank some wine, but not much.The smell of alcohol was not unpleasant on him, but it had a fruity fragrance.He looked in the direction Fu Wei's chopsticks were pointing at. Tang Shen, who was wearing a dark red robe, tied up his long hair for the first time, and a few strands of black hair fell on his forehead.Those eyes were extremely bright, set off by the dark clothes, like stars in the dark night.

Wang Qin's eyes dimmed, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he lowered his head to drink.

Fu Wei said: "What do you think of your junior brother?"

Wang Qin stopped drinking.

Fu Wei picked up the wine glass, showed a contented expression, and drank a cup happily.

Fu Wei said with emotion: "Si Wuxie!"

Think innocent.

The mind is pure, does not hide filth, does not see evil things.
