Chapter 589: August 8
The eighth day of the eighth month of August was a big day for North Vietnam, because this day officially announced the end of North Vietnam. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Although in a strict sense, when the Taiping army entered the capital of Yuejing, it was already dead, but today, is the day when the Ming Empire was officially proclaimed, the rise of the new dynasty, the fall of the old dynasty, in the history books, will be divided by today.
Similarly, for the Ming Empire, today is also a big day. For today's day, countless robes and blood were spilled on the battlefield, and six hundred old soldiers rose up in Yanshan, and it took only four years for them to use the iron knife in their hands to lay down a big country.
Of course, this day was a very gloomy day for Lu Bai, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites. He is an old minister of North Vietnam, who has organized the enthronement ceremony for the two generations of emperors of North Vietnam, but at present, this is undoubtedly the most difficult to serve, and the grand ceremony he carefully planned was cut into a four different with a stroke of the pen of the young and vigorous emperor, and all the ceremonies were almost deleted completely, and it was also called "saving money".
It is necessary to save money, but without this provincial law, the enthronement ceremony is not only the face of the emperor, but also the face of the country. Now the envoys of Qin, Chu, and Qi are all in Yuejing. Lu Bai can also imagine it with his ass, and it won't be long before the enthronement ceremony in front of him will become a big joke in the world.
But does he dare to make a noise? Naturally, they don't dare. In the past, even when Wu Jian was the emperor, Lao Shangshu dared to blow his beard and stare at him, blushing and having a thick neck, but now, he did not dare to disobey this young emperor.
When the current Shoufu went to ask him to go out of the mountain again to serve as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, he refused on the spot, and the Shoufu did not say much at the time, and left on his own, but sent a servant to deliver a letter when he turned around.
The letter is simple, with only one sentence: For the sake of children and grandchildren!
Lu Bai took this four-word letter and sighed all night, and the next day, he went to the Ministry of Rites to take office. But he never imagined that his first mission would be messed up.
Thinking of the second task that was still smashed in his hands, he was even more sad. Compared with the others, at this moment, the smiling expressions of the civil ministers and military generals who were standing under the high steps of the Taihe Hall formed a stark contrast.
The three-grade official uniform he wore was very different from the official uniform he wore before, which made the old Ministry of Rites Shangshu, who had worn the Dayue official uniform all his life, very uncomfortable. This new official uniform was only delivered to us by the Weaving Bureau yesterday.
The new official uniform of the Ming Empire, the third grade or more is purple, the sixth grade is red, and the sixth grade is green, which is not enough, the problem is that there are two more patches on the chest and chest of this official uniform, and the complement of the civil official is embroidered with birds, a fairy crane, a second grade of golden chicken, a third-grade peacock, a fourth-grade cloud goose, a fifth-grade white pheasant, a six-grade heron, a seven-grade mandarin duck, an eight-grade lark, and a nine-grade training bird. The military attache is a first-grade unicorn, a second-grade lion, a third-grade leopard, a fourth-grade tiger, a fifth-grade bear, a sixth-grade biao, a seventh-grade and eighth-grade ox, and a ninth-grade seahorse.
The Ming Dynasty, which had just established the dynasty, did not set up a first-class official, and the first auxiliary Quan Yun, the head of the civil officials, was only a second-grade official, and he was also a second-grade person, only Wang Hou, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, and Huo Guang, the military attaché, was the second grade, and others such as Zhang Xiaozheng and others were only third-grade.
Looking at the purple and red blue in his eyes, Lu Bai couldn't help but smile bitterly, it was really a large number of beasts.
The door of the Taihe Hall opened, and Grandpa Le appeared on the high steps, holding a long whip in his hand, facing the rising sun, shaking left and right, and snapping two crisp whips, sounded outside the Taihe Palace.
Wenchen military general, under the leadership of Zuo Fu Quan Yun and the military department Shangshu Huo Guang, Yuguan walked up the steps and entered the Taihe Palace.
At the same time, the bell towers of the four city gates in Yuejing City, the four big bells were rang at the same time, and the one hundred and eight consecutive bells reverberated throughout Yuejing City, and all the people of Yuejing who heard the bell turned their eyes to the direction where the imperial palace was located, and a new dynasty was officially established in the north.
When the melodious bell rang, a tall old man, carrying a baggage, appeared outside the north city gate, because today's day is special, the number of soldiers guarding the city at the city gate has also doubled, and there are officers who never leave the town, and everyone who enters the city, especially outsiders, will be interrogated.
The old man who was waiting in line to enter the city had a smile on his face, and listened to the continuous ringing of the bell, he naturally knew what the bell meant.
But he knew better that when the bell was ringing, farther north, in that place where the mountains stretched out, the sound of war drums and horns, which sounded better than the bell, was also ringing, and tens of thousands of Yan troops had already set out from Fuyuan County, ready to go straight to the capital.
The four counties of Fuyuan were originally the guards of Yuejing City, and the purpose of building them was to block the barbarians who were killed from the mountains, and Fuyuan County, which was the farthest away from Yuejing City, was only three hundred miles away from Yuejing City.
Who will win the great rivers and mountains, and who will kill the deer, it is not yet known!
When the old man strode into the north gate of Yuejing City, in the black house, Qianmian took a few steps back, looked at the work in front of him, and smacked his mouth with satisfaction.
"There are eight or nine likenesses, Lord Yu, why don't you just make a mask, wouldn't it be much easier!" Tian Kang asked a little puzzled.
Qianmian spread his hands, "It's easy to make a mask, but that thing, it's still okay to bluff people in a short time, but what Lord Guo asks for is a long-term lurk, if you wear a mask, it's not clear that you are a spy and shout to others, come and arrest me!" ”
"But although this fake Yan Ke is almost real to the real Yan Ke in terms of body shape and appearance, as long as he is the closest person to this son, I am afraid that he can still distinguish it." Tian Kangdao.
"Don't worry, judging from that Yan Ke's confession, he has been lurking in the capital for many years, and in the past few years, there have been some small changes in people's appearance, which is not surprising, and these spies have always not seen each other, do not know each other, and have not had the slightest handover between each other, which is not unhelpful to our plan." Qianmian smiled: "Tian Kang, this is the highest level of disguise, this brother, in the future, he can only live with this face, and it is impossible to change back." ”
Guo Jiuling looked at the fake Yanke in front of him, and said with a slight smile: "Bring them over." ”
The man in black escorted Yan Ke and Yu Qin into the room, and when he saw the person who was slowly sitting up from the bed and looking at him, Yan Ke screamed out, as if in front of him, there was a mirror, and he saw another self in the mirror. After a while, he hung his head like a deflated ball, and at this point, he still didn't understand, what the other party wanted to do?
Walking to the ground floor of the black room, a man in black was already hurrying over.
"Murong Jing has entered the city, the little eagle outside asks for instructions, do you want to follow him?"
"Nope." Guo Jiuling immediately denied, "Murong Jing is a good player at the peak of the ninth level, any tracking will make him alert, except for those fixed-point sleeping eagles, other eaglets are not allowed to follow, let him go." ”
"Got it!" The man in black turned and walked away.
Guo Jiuling snorted coldly: "No matter where you go, you will still appear in front of my eyes after all." At his feet, that fake Yan Ke, of course, will go to see the guy who has worked hard all the way to Yuejing City in the next time.
Of course, what Guo Jiuling planned was not only to just wipe out the barbarian spies in Yuejing City, he wanted more and more long-term.
In the Taihe Palace, the ministers bowed, three shouts of long live, even if Qin Feng waved his pen, the red tape of the enthronement ceremony was deleted to seven, seven, eighty, eight, but it still took about an hour before it was officially completed, and on the main hall, the envoys of the three kingdoms presented the letter of state, which was regarded as the official recognition of the status of the Ming Empire.
Qin Feng, who was dressed as an emperor, only felt uncomfortable, and the crown on his head was much lighter than the iron helmet he wore on weekdays, but Qin Feng felt that it was too heavy, and after only wearing this hour, he felt that his neck was sore, and he couldn't help but secretly feel that this thing was really not worn by people.
Among the ceremonies, the biggest ceremony is the military parade, not only all the troops of the Taiping Army will send troops to participate in the parade, that is, the border army of Qin, the dragon of Qi, and the fire phoenix of Chu also symbolically sent a team of 100 people to participate in the performance.
Chaoyang Tower, in the past years, has ushered in countless emperors here to review their army, and today, he has ushered in a new master, the founding emperor of the Ming Empire, Qin Feng.
The sun and moon king flag flutters high on the top of the city tower, on both sides, the fire sword flag guards the left and right, standing on the top of the Chaoyang tower, you can see the four tall city towers in the outer city of Yuejing in the distance, above, the sun and moon flag and the fire war sword flag are also shining under the sunlight, echoing with the king flag on the Chaoyang tower.
Qin Feng took Min Ruoxi's hand and climbed to the top of Chaoyang Tower, behind him, the military generals of Wenchen climbed the city tower one after another, and the envoys from the Three Kingdoms were naturally among them. As early as on the city wall on both sides of Chaoyang Tower, the gentry, businessmen and some specially invited people from all over the country came to watch the ceremony, facing Chaoyang Tower, three bows and nine knocks.
The war drums beat slowly, only after every breath, and with the slow sound of the drums, the troops who had already prepared in the distance immediately became excited. Each battalion can only send 500 people to be read, and there are no outstanding military exploits, and if you want to be among the 500 people, don't even think about it.
The beat of the drum became more and more urgent, and the horn sounded at this time.
The drums stopped abruptly, the horns stopped abruptly, and in the distance, three horsemen rushed forward, one in the lead, holding the Sun and Moon King Banner, and two behind them, each holding a fire sword flag.
Running to the Chaoyang Tower, the three horses reined in, the war horse neighed, the person stood up, fell heavily, and the three horse heads were facing the Chaoyang Tower.
"Your Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Empire, the troops under review have been prepared!"
Qin Feng nodded slightly and waved his hand, "Let's start!" ”
"Yes!" The knight bent down, waved his arms, and the sun and moon flag of the Ming Dynasty snatched it and inserted it into the ground, and the two knights behind him also inserted the fire sword flag in their hands behind the sun and moon flag, and the three horsemen saluted to Chaoyang Tower, turned around and rode away.
The sound of war drums is back. (To be continued.) )
