Chapter 380: The Ministers Have Their Songs
"Three hundred miles expedited, three hundred miles expedited!"
"Pass on the gold list, open the door and let it go, the obstructor is a big crime, and the rebel is severely punished!"
In the early morning, in front of the city gate of Anqing Mansion, a smoke and dust rolled, two fast horses went straight to the city gate from the smoke and dust, among them, the first horseman held a roll of documents stamped with a large seal, which was written with the words "immediately fly", and the horse went straight to the city gate without slowing down.
The one in the back rode a little slower, holding a black gift in his hand, in the form of a scroll, with sunflower ebony as the axis. The horse in front of him also went straight to the city gate without slowing down.
In fact, the latter ride and the first ride are not together, they met when they were near Anqing Mansion, they all set off from the capital, and the latter rode more than two days earlier than the front one, but the gift he delivered was only 200 miles to expedite, so he let the back rider catch up not far in front of Anqing Mansion.
The soldiers guarding the city gate of Anqing Mansion looked at the post guards who came on horses from a distance, and then looked at the documents held high in their hands, and dared to stop for a moment, and quickly dredged the city gate for them to pass.
Finally, the will of the golden list and the gift of Anren finally came to Anqing Mansion.
At the same time, when the postcoach arrived at Anqing Mansion after galloping for several days, Zhu Ping'an, who was far away in the capital, had already finished his three-day training in Honglu Temple, and it was the day of thanksgiving.
In accordance with the requirements of the "Daming Huidian", after the three-day training of Honglu Temple, the champion led all the Jinshi to express their gratitude. It can be regarded as a test of the effect of the three-day etiquette training in Honglu Temple, and this time the above table of thanksgiving is a standard court meeting. In other words, this day happens to be the day when hundreds of civil and military officials go to court. Thanksgiving at the court meeting is the best way to test the etiquette of the new jinshi.
This court meeting was set in Xiyuan, and it was not easy for Emperor Jiajing to go out of Xiyuan to the Forbidden City last time. This time, I was able to hold a court meeting in Xiyuan in accordance with the "Daming Huidian", which has already made the civil and military officials very satisfied.
This is the beginning of the year, and being able to see Emperor Jiajing twice has greatly surprised them. You must know that Emperor Jiajing did not go to court in previous years, and they didn't want to see Jiajing once for several years. The West Garden is the West Garden, don't ask too much. Emperor Jiajing was able to find time to convene a court meeting in the midst of alchemy and immortal cultivation, and the civil and military officials were already satisfied.
On this day, Zhu Ping'an put on his crown dress early in the morning. I came to the gate of Xiyuan Palace early.
In this year, Emperor Jiajing's previous dynasty was much more difficult than winning the lottery jackpot, and the opportunity was not easy, and the civil and military officials cherished it extraordinarily. It didn't take long for the most elite bureaucracy of the Ming Dynasty to gather in front of the gate of Xiyuan Palace.
When the time comes. The gate of Xiyuan Palace was wide open, and hundreds of civil and military officials entered in line according to their ranks, and Zhu Ping'an led all the Jinshi to follow.
It's not the first time I've come to Xiyuan, the last time the palace examination room was set up in the Taisu Hall of Xiyuan, and this time the court meeting is still set up in the Taisu Palace. The officials of Honglu Temple led the palace guards early and placed a watch carved with dragon patterns about three meters away from the east side of the gate of Taisu Temple.
Look at this dragon pattern watch case. Zhu Ping'an knew in his heart that this dragon pattern watch was the place for him to place the thank you watch on behalf of Zhu Jinshi. Thanksgiving above. It is all a fixed program, and the content of the table is also what room to play, Zhu Ping'an's gratitude table has long been written under the guidance of the officials of Honglu Temple when he was training in Honglu Temple.
Soon, Emperor Jiajing's chariot under the escort of the brocade guards came from afar.
The word halogen in the halogen is not braised meat, but the fake word of "turret", which means shield. "Han Guanyi" has a specific description of the specifications of the halo book: "The Son of Heaven is called the halo when he goes out of the car, and the guards take the armor and shield as the forerunner, which is called the book, so it is called the halo book." ”
The Jinyi guard held a silver shield, holding a golden gourd, a treasure top, a flag and other honor guards around Emperor Jiajing's chariot, accompanied by court musicians, and the music was endless along the way.
A whip sounded in the clear sky, and Emperor Jiajing appeared on the stage.
The civil and military hundred officials shouted long live the tsunami, long live, long live, three kneeling and nine knocking, kneeling on the ground and making a big salute. Zhu Ping'an led the Jinshi to stand at the foot of the steps, and he couldn't hear the movement in the hall clearly, so he could only kneel and kneel again with everyone.
After the monarch and ministers finished the ceremony, they began the main topic of this court meeting, and Zhuang Yuanlang expressed his gratitude on behalf of the newly promoted Jinshi.
An official from Honglu Temple walked down the steps, led Zhu Ping'an up the steps, and came to the dragon pattern case outside the east gate of the main hall, and asked Zhu Ping'an to place the gratitude watch on this dragon pattern case.
Before and after Zhu Ping'an came to the dragon pattern case, under the guidance of the officials of Honglu Temple, he knelt down and held the thanksgiving table and put it on several cases.
After putting the watch away, Zhu Ping'an once again performed a three-kneeling and nine-bow ceremony in accordance with the requirements of training in Honglu Temple. After the salute, Zhu Ping'an retreated to the position at the bottom of the steps again, and led the new jinshi to stand at the bottom of the steps.
"Feed Table"
The praise officer shouted angrily.
As soon as the words fell, an official from Honglu Temple came out of the queue, walked to the dragon pattern case, took Zhu Ping'an's thanksgiving watch with both hands, walked to the main hall to bow and kneel, and knelt in the center of the hall with Sien.
"Manifestation"
The reckoning officer shouted again in a hearty voice.
The officials of Honglu Temple knelt down and began to announce the table, only reading out the table of contents and the summary at the end.
"Meet the new Jinshi." The reckoning officer shouted again.
Zhu Ping'an led the new Jinshi Gate to the main hall and bowed three times and nine times to Emperor Jiajing who was sitting on the dragon chair.
"Er or enter the Hanlin, or enter the six yamen, I am writing, and I am peaceful. Reserve virtue house materials, for your day, do not slack off, otherwise I will never be spared. ”
Emperor Jiajing, who was sitting on the dragon chair, looked at the newly promoted jinshi kneeling in the main hall, nodded with satisfaction, and opened the golden mouth.
"Obey the Divine Commandment." Zhu Ping'an and the others knelt down and replied.
After that, Emperor Jiajing stopped talking, cherishing words like gold, the praise official announced the end of the ceremony, Zhu Ping'an and others got up to thank them, and then under the guidance of the officials of Honglu Temple, they came to the end of the civil officials, and stood in line.
Generally speaking, after the above expression of thanksgiving is completed, then this court meeting will be successfully completed, Emperor Jiajing will return to the palace, and all the civil and military officials will return to their respective homes.
Today, though, there are some differences.
After the praise official finished reading out according to the procedure, and was about to end the court meeting according to the procedure, suddenly a voice came out from the queue of civil and military officials.
"The minister has his own music."
A clear voice broke the silence of the hall and drew all the attention.
In the eyes of everyone, I saw a forty-year-old official, elegant looking, wearing a flying fish suit, holding a wat board, striding out of the queue, and shouted to Emperor Jiajing, who was sitting on the dragon chair.
The voice is clear, sonorous and powerful, and the expression is solemn, and he looks at death as if he were at home. (To be continued.) )
