Chapter 137 Then play music, then dance(1/2)
Outside the Fengwang Hall, two rows of Han generals held the sun and moon flags of the yellow sun and moon, and were clamoring under the cold wind in early spring.
The Jiaofangsi has set up the Nine-song music songs, and the three-dance team has been waiting respectfully for His Highness Fengwang.
Guanglu Temple has prepared a kitchen pavilion and a wine pavilion. At the end of the kitchen pavilion and a wine pavilion, there is a Zhenxiu Xixie Pavilion, which is specifically responsible for precious ingredients.
These dining pavilions and wine pavilions are places for officials below the fifth rank and below to eat. They eat a few bites, drink some wine, and stand and watch the fun. There is no seat.
What’s more interesting is that envoys from various countries do not have seats, but just stand in the corner from afar.
Their seats were called to go up and off the horse banquet, and they were not even qualified to go to the dining hall and the wine hall.
These foreign envoys are not qualified to attend, which is different from later generations. Many court officials asked foreign envoys to stay in Tianjin on the grounds that foreign envoys were inquiring about the news in the capital. If there was nothing to do, they would not go to Beijing.
Before Zhu Qiyu could enter the Fengwang Hall, Empress Dowager Sun's grand chasing arrived.
"Empress Dowager Sun." Zhu Qiyu didn't call him mother, he had never called him before.
Queen Mother Sun's anger was not gone, but this relationship still needs to be maintained on the surface. She said calmly: "Thank you for your hard work in the emperor."
When Hu Yi saw that everyone was together, he immediately asked the Jiaofangsi to start playing music and the drums and music were heard.
"Please give up the emperor!" Hu Yi shouted and began to take his seat.
Zhu Qiyu glanced at the prince's position. It was supposed to be Zhu Jianshen's position, but now Wang Meilin is sitting there holding Zhu Jianji.
Qian took Zhu Jianshen to sit in the position of the prince of Prince Ji's mansion.
Yan rituals are the reason why the monarch and ministers are wise. The ceremonies are the first to be the ministers, and the ceremonies are the second to be the second to be the second to be the second to be the second to be the second to be the second to be the second to be the second to be the second to be the second to be the second to be the second to be the second to be the second to be the second to be the second to be the second to be the second to be the second to be the second to be
The purpose of holding a grand banquet is to make the righteousness of the monarch and his subjects clear. The seats are arranged very cleverly. The emperor's seat is the crown prince, so this cannot be disturbed.
If Zhu Qiyu did not deprive Zhu Qizhen of his emperor title today, and Zhu Jianshen was sitting in the crown prince today, wouldn’t this be a mess of the seat?
In this way, even envoys from North Korea, Chameng, Ryukyu, Java, Siam, Hami, Hala, Tulupan, Mantaga, Japan, Ceylon Mountain and other countries will see it.
Oh, His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, their sect leader, is just a substitute, and even the prince is not a blood relative.
So Hu Yi would not object to His Majesty's act of deposing the emperor's title. Otherwise, how would he, the Minister of Rites, arrange the banquet?
Too difficult to deal with.
Jiujue is a cumbersome etiquette.
Zhu Qiyu did not drink wine and refused to accept the water and food in the palace. This is Zhu Qiyu's greatest respect for this Ming Dynasty Palace.
Do you know if there is any lead and mercury in the wine? Do you know if anyone takes risks?
Do you know if it will affect the fertility rate?
After the cumbersome Nine-June ceremony, Zhu Qiyu said to Xing'an: "Let the queen take Ji'er back first. The wind is a little cold. Take my cloak."
When Zhu Jianji was still young, only one year old and couldn't walk steadily, he was already sleepy after the Jiujue Lecture. At this age, the child had not even grown up with a harbor. He still needed to wear a hat when he went out.
Such places with many people can easily get sick, so you can simply show your face and go back.
"I received the order." Xing'an picked up Zhu Qiyu's cloak and escorted Wang Meilin away from the banquet.
Qian looked at Wang Meilin's back as she left, and then looked at Zhu Jianshen. Zhu Jianshen said that he was three years old, but in fact he was only two years old. She looked at Zhu Jianshen's dozing look worriedly, and she felt a little sad.
"Princess Ji, Your Majesty ordered Princess Ji to take His Highness back to Prince Ji's Mansion. It's too cold." Cheng Jing found a new cloak and walked over.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, Long's ego." Qian pursed her lips and hurriedly thanked her.
Queen Mother Sun saw Wang Meilin and Zhu Jianji, Qian took Zhu Jianshen away, drank a glass of wine, and vomited a breath.
Today, the Queen Mother Sun decided not to bother with the fact that she had given up the title of Emperor.
At least we must protect these two children and put the throne line under the bloodline of the late emperor Zhu Zhanji.
Do you have to live and die with the evil emperor?
For a son who was rushing north to the north, I wonder if he could come back, and had a big fight with another concubine.
Then wouldn’t Zhu Zhanji, the fifth brother of the late emperor Zhu Zhanji, laughed so hard that his cheeks hurt?
At that time, the throne will fall from heaven and the side branches will enter the sect?
That was something that Queen Mother Sun was even more reluctant to happen. When she got underground, she had a shameful son Beishou. If she spread the country to the hands of the other branches because of this, how could he meet his husband?
Although Empress Dowager Sun was dissatisfied with the emperor's deposed her own son's title, what could it do?
Who asked his own son to hunt north?
If a concubine's son is crazy, he also has the capital for crazy.
Zhu Qiyu held his hands in his arms and watched the lively banquet. After the Nine-Judges Ceremony, everyone became much more relaxed. The wife sat in the side hall, and occasionally laughed out loud.
This is not considered a misconduct.
A group of people walked around the banquet. They were ceremonial officials jointly composed of four departments: the Censorate, the Jinyiwei, the Honglu Temple, and the Ministry of Rites.
It is no joke that your superiors have misconduct in front of you, it is a crime of disrespect. How to deal with it depends entirely on Your Majesty's wishes.
Even if there is an official in charge of ceremonies, there is still a fight for the throne.
The Secretariat of the Central Secretariat is a seventh-rank official, and the ritual minister is also a seventh-rank official. Although the rank is comparable to the seventh-rank official, he is a minister of the court.
He is in a low position but still has a seat, and he is not sure how high he is than some fifth-rank officials who have no seats.
Li Yingzhen, the clerk of the Secretariat, and Zhao Yin, the clerk of Li Ke, had a dispute over the title.
The two of them were obviously drunk, and Li Yingzhen wanted to sit in front of Zhao Yin. Zhao Yin was not willing to do so, so he quarreled for a few words and almost started to fight. He was taken down by the ritual officer.
The two were taken to the imperial court.
At this moment, the wine woke up immediately. The two of them didn't go crazy or arrogant. They lie on the ground tremblingly, and they didn't even dare to raise their heads.
The lively atmosphere in front of the emperor quickly attracted the attention of most people. In front of the Fengwang Hall, it gradually became quieter, and even the vocal music of the Jiaofangsi became a little smaller.
Almost everyone's eyes were focused on Zhu Qiyu.
"Have you sobered up?" Zhu Qiyu asked with a smile. When he got drunk, he began to become unscrupulous.
The two men trembled in both arms and lay on the ground and shouted loudly: "I am aware of the crime."
"Your Majesty." Yu Qian stood up, with a hesitation on his face and said, "Your Majesty, the New Year is the Oirat, and the two little princes are also happy, and they will sweep away the haze of last year."
Yu Qian still feels that it is not good to see blood during the Chinese New Year.
Zhu Qiyu didn't think that punishing such things could make court officials respectful, and they would only be afraid, not respectful.
He asked with a smile, "What should I do to follow the rules?"
"The salary is fined for half a year." Yu Qian hurriedly replied, as long as the system is followed, not the right way to deal with it without punishment, it is actually not a big problem.
Your Majesty has always been punishing severely. If this is done according to the law of non-punishment, it would be that two heads fell to the ground.
Zhu Qiyu shook his head and said, "I'll forget it if I'm fined for half a year."
"Two my dear friends, I won't be fined for the salary. During the Chinese New Year, I can't go home and say that after I go to the palace for a meal, I will lose my salary for half a year."
“This is not suitable.”
The officials of the Ming Dynasty had low salary, so if they were fined for half a year, they would have to embezzle and be filth.
Zhu Qiyu thought for a while and said, "If you two are punished in this way, you will not be allowed to drink for three years. If a scholar drinks like this, it will also be a disgrace to be gentle."
Li Yingzhen, the clan of the Secretariat, wrote the imperial edict to remove the emperor's title. Zhao Yin, the clan of the ritual department, found the legal basis from Zhu Di's removal of Zhu Yunwen's title, and wrote it on the imperial edict.
There is no such thing as killing a donkey before you stop.
The two officials said tremblingly: "I will follow the sages."
Zhu Qiyu has never been a bloodthirsty person.
All the cases he handled, such as Yin Jiegu people, defecting to the Oirat, recognizing the thief as his father and being a spy, reselling grain during wartime, assassinating the king and killing the emperor, etc., were all major cases!
All those who punished were traitors! They were all damn people!
This is not a big deal when drinking too much during the Chinese New Year.
Another reason is that today Zhu Qiyu did a major event and cut off Zhu Jiaomen’s title of emperor!
Happy.
Zhu Qiyu stood up and said, "Switch on music, continue dancing!"
The vocal music student immediately rose again, and in front of the Fengwang Hall became lively.
He had to go back, and Wang Meilin's eyes were full of resentment. Today, she received the order and took Zhu Jianji to the banquet, and she was the crown prince, so she was in panic all day long.
If Zhu Jianji was really granted the crown prince, Wang Meilin would not be able to retain the position of queen, and the deposed Empress Hang Xian as Queen, directly correcting Zhu Jianji's reputation.
Zhu Qiyu had just walked two steps when he suddenly heard the singing sound very familiar.
On the Danbi Music Platform, the dance of destiny and virtue was being played, and the two leading dancers, wearing white masks, were dancing gracefully, with graceful dances.
The singing comes from the direction of the singer.
The sound was gentle and crisp, just like the birds outside the window when I woke up in the morning. Even in such a noisy environment, it was still very penetrating to Zhu Qiyu's ears.
He glanced at the woman, but from a distance he saw half of his pretty face with creamy skin, and his extremely lively eyes, as if the stars in the sky had fallen into her eyes.
"What a handsome woman." Zhu Qiyu nodded to the woman. He didn't recognize anyone, but he recognized the voice.
