If you can overlook the entire capital at this time, you will find that the Jin Yiwei has occupied most of the core areas of the capital.
There are almost five-meter posts. In addition to such fixed posts, there are also squad leaders at the corps commander level who lead patrol teams to patrol along fixed routes.
Once a suspicious person is found, he will be captured immediately. On the contrary, he is still polite to ordinary people, and most of the time he will let them go home as politely as he treated Zhang Laosan.
If anyone didn't listen to the advice, they would be tied up and taken away.
It's just that there are not many people who are unwise enough to remain stubborn when facing Dongchang.
The entire capital city went from silence to awakening, but today was not like usual. At this time, the streets were already full of people going to the early morning market.
But today, only people from Dongchang and the government are walking on the street. Not to mention the people going to the market, even the shops along the street are closed.
The entire capital city ushered in the first ray of dawn in such a strange atmosphere.
When the morning light shone on the glazed tiles on the roof of Xi Zheng Hall in the East Palace, Li Chen had already gotten up on time.
Kneeling in front of him were two officials from the Ministry of Etiquette, explaining to Li Chen the procedures and the entire ceremony for today's wedding.
While he listened, he opened his hands and let the nuns from the palace dress him in formal clothes.
For today's wedding, the dress he wore was also the most solemn dress. Such a dress was extremely cumbersome. If it weren't for the older nuns, the immature girls and maids in the East Palace would really not be able to wear it.
"Your Highness, if an ordinary family gets married, the groom needs to go to the bride's home in person in a sedan chair with the matchmaker's agreement, but the royal family does not follow this etiquette."
"After His Highness is dressed neatly, he needs to rush to the palace to salute the Holy Emperor and the Queen. After the Holy Spirit issues an imperial edict, the ceremony is declared complete."
"It's just that the Holy Dragon's body is not in good condition. The Empress wants to keep everything simple. She skips this step and goes directly to the Ancestral Temple. The Empress will lead the Crown Prince to record the name of the Crown Princess in the Ancestral Temple's roster, and then burn the rubbings of the marriage book as a sign of honor.
I will present my ancestors and allow the Crown Princess to enter the Li family's royal family."
Li Chen nodded and said, "Shan, just follow the Queen's wishes."
The official of the Ministry of Rites who spoke saluted, and then said: "After His Highness came out from the Ancestral Temple, the wedding team here led by Lord Zong Ling of the Zongren Mansion had almost arrived at the entrance of the Ancestral Temple. The main entrance of the Ancestral Temple was opened, and His Highness was at the main entrance.
Welcome the Crown Princess at the door."
"After His Highness and the Crown Princess enter the Ancestral Temple from the main entrance, they will perform filial gifts to the Queen, serve tea, and then burn incense to the ancestors together."
"Then, His Royal Highness and the Crown Princess will leave the Ancestral Temple through the main entrance, return to the East Palace, enter through the main entrance, and then hold the wedding banquet. The Queen will preside over it, announcing it to the world and announcing the completion of the ceremony."
The ancients paid great attention to the sacrifice of ancestors, and the Qin Empire governed the country based on filial piety, so all etiquette basically revolved around the ancestors.
Li Chen felt like his head was getting bigger after listening to a lot of complicated etiquette and precautions.
"Okay, okay, I will listen to your arrangements."
Waving his hand to stop the chattering of the officials, Li Chen said: "Then now, I can just go to the harem directly, right?"
