After Zhu Cihong was busy in the Forbidden City, the bride was about to enter the palace. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhao Guangyin led the whole family, young and old, waiting at the gate to welcome the family. Li Banghua took the greeting messenger to announce the edict loudly. In the sound of drums, the sedan chair man in brocade clothes carried the queen's rites and dragon pavilions into the front yard, and then carried them by the eunuchs to the front of the embroidery building in the backyard, and parked them in the auspicious position designated by the officials of Qin Tianjian. Zhao Shiyao appeared in a queen's dress and a phoenix crown, and her aura amazed the audience. After that, Zhao Shiyao accepted the gold book and Jinbao, and returned to the embroidery building to wait for the auspicious time.

As soon as the auspicious time arrived, Zhao Shiyao rose to public opinion and set off. The large group of people and horses pass through the front gate, along the royal road, pass the Daming Gate, enter the Tiananmen Square, the end gate, when they arrive at the noon gate, the bells and drums on the city tower ring in unison. The team entered the Forbidden City from the middle of the noon gate, passed through the Huangji Gate, and arrived at the Qianqing Gate. The queen's guard of honor entered the Qianqing gate, and the eunuchs and palace maids lined up in the road, clapping and warmly welcoming them, and the atmosphere was not jubilant.

In His Majesty Dan, the greeting envoy also returned to life. In the sound of drums, the officials of the Ministry of Rites presented the queen's golden book and golden treasure to the relevant people and displayed them in the Jiaotai Hall behind the Qianqing Palace. The bride sits in the ceremony, by the order of the lady, female officials, palace maids, or lead, or carry, or support, or follow, sent to Kunning Palace to worship heaven and earth, and make a big salute.

Kunning Palace is the third palace of the three palaces in the palace, it is the queen's bedroom in the Ming Dynasty, and it is also the cave room when the emperor is married, the etiquette is very grand and exquisite. Zhao Shiyao was to be carried in from the Daming Gate, through the Chengtian Gate, the Noon Gate, and until the harem. And when ordinary concubines enter the palace, they can only go through the Xuanwu Gate, the back gate of the Forbidden City. Even the Empress Dowager Cixi, who was the mother of the late Qing Dynasty in later generations, failed to walk in from the Great Qing Gate, which became the center of her life.

This time Zhu Cihong's wedding is actually quite special. Because, this time, only one queen entered the palace, and there were no other concubines.

At this moment, from the east steps of Cining Gate to the left of the door, Zhu Cihong stood facing the west. At this time, Zhonghe Shaole played "The Chapter of Peace". The Emperor and the Queen Mother ascended to the throne and were happy. The official of the Ministry of Rites led the emperor to the mattress. Zhu Cihong stood up, and His Majesty made great music, playing "The Chapter of Yiping".

Honglu Temple recital: Kneel! Zhu Cihong knelt. Performance: Bye! Prosper! Zhu Cihong knelt three times and bowed nine times, Xing. At this time, Emperor Chongzhen and Empress Dowager Zhou got up and returned to the palace. Wang Duo of the Ministry of Rites: Licheng.

At this point, Zhu Cihong can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

The wedding has basically come to an end, and then ...... It also arrived at the most joyful atmosphere: the cave room.

The four joys of life, the candle night in the cave room beckoned to Zhu Cihong.

However, unlike the folk customs of cave houses, the cave room where Zhao Shiyao and Zhu Cihong married was not in the emperor's original bedroom, and there was no fixed cave room, and the place where the ceremony was held was generally regarded as the cave room on the wedding night.

This time, that is, in Kunning Palace.

The decoration of Kunning Palace is naturally luxurious and elegant, but it is also inevitable that the folk are rare. Posted red double happiness and all kinds of festive sparring.

The main color of the whole room is bright red, and under the burning of the lamps and candles, the red light is devastated and full of joy. What especially made Zhu Cihong and Zhao Shiyao feel both tacky and shy was: there was a hundred-child tent hanging in front of the bed, and a hundred-child quilt was also placed on the cover. There are a hundred children with different expressions embroidered on it, and the intention is self-explanatory. In addition, hanging on the head of the bed is a big red satin, a curtain of double happiness.

Zhu Cihong and Zhao Shiyao stayed in the Dongnuan Pavilion after entering the Kunning Palace. Zhao Shiyao looked inside the room, and the walls were decorated with red paint and silver tung oil. There is a double happiness red letter palace lamp hanging on the front hall, and the gilt gold door is glued with the double happiness word of gold and powder. On the door, there is also a large traditional Chinese character for happiness written in cursive. On the wall, jubilant sparrings such as the Centennial Harmony fell straight to the ground. From the entrance of the East Warm Pavilion from the main gate of Kunning Palace, plus in the corridor on the east side of the cave house, a big red inlaid gold wooden shadow wall is erected. This is the meaning of the emperor and queen and the joy of opening the door.

There are countless gold and jade treasures in the cave room, which is magnificent, showing the royal extravagance.

Even Zhu Cihong looked at it, and couldn't help but say: "It's really been a lot better these days." ”

is not as good as Zhao Shiyao's first time in the palace, Zhu Cihong knows how shabby the palace was when Emperor Chongzhen was in power. Even Zhu Youzhen's clothes were damaged, and Queen Zhou had to patch them by herself, so it goes without saying how much the palace was used.

As a cave house, the East Warm Pavilion is open to two rooms, the east side is against the north wall for the emperor's throne, and there is a jade Ruyi handle that symbolizes auspiciousness on the right hand. The front eaves are connected to a big kang, the two sides of the kang are red sandalwood carved dragons and phoenixes, there are porcelain bottles, treasures and other furnishings on the kang table, and a pair of double happiness table lamps are displayed on the left side of the kang front.

As today's sports venue, a dragon and phoenix bed is placed in the northwest corner. The red kang mattress of double happiness is not mentioned, and the rest have neat bright yellow ends and vermilion colored satin quilts and pillows, which are well-made and only for the royal family's royal supplies. In addition to the usual joyful and auspicious sparring on the wall of the bed, there is a peony flower picture in the center, and a pair of treasure ruyi cabinets are placed against the wall.

Zhu Cihong and Zhao Shiyao sat on the bed of the dragon and phoenix, and the palace maids placed copper basins on the bed. This is the meaning of the children and grandchildren. In addition, there is a small basin of small sleep on it, which is actually the food of the children and grandchildren.

Zhu Cihong and Zhao Shiyao were busy all day, but they were actually hungry. Not long after, the feast began.

waved everyone back, and Zhu Cihong's eyes fell on Zhao Shiyao.

Today's Zhao Shiyao is particularly beautiful, and it is said that the woman at the wedding is the most beautiful moment in her life, and Zhu Cihong has an experience today. The red silk scarf on the top of his head covered his face, and Zhao Shiyao's face could only be faintly seen in the light veil.

Such a half-concealment did not cover the beauty, and it made the beauty a little more unbearable. Zhu Cihong picked up the gold scale rod and gently picked up the hijab.

Zhu Cihong's gaze first fell from the white swan-like neck, and then slowly rose, his gaze rose little by little from the fair-skinned lower bar, with ruddy and full lips, a straight and small nose, and a pair of tender eyes like water. Zhao Shiyao's facial features are particularly exquisite, and after being modified with red makeup, she is even more beautiful in this wedding season.

Zhu Cihong gently threw the red hijab on the roof, looked at Zhu Cihong, and the two sides got closer and closer in each other's eyes, and under the breath, they arrived on each other's faces.

The breathing could be heard, and the sound of the heartbeat was thumping and speeding up rapidly.

Zhao Shiyao raised the silver cup in her hand, and Zhu Cihong also picked it up from the table. It's a glass of wine.

Seeing this, the serving palace maid gestured to the guards and couples who had been preparing outside the hall for a long time. "Jiao Zhu Song" sounded in unison, and the ceremony was completed.

After Zhu Cihong and Zhao Shiyao finished eating longevity noodles, the house was finally empty.

Zhao Shiyao and Zhu Cihong both breathed a sigh of relief almost at the same time.

The two looked at each other and smiled, both reading everything from each other's gaze. The two sides looked at each other, looked at each other's faces, and looked at each other for a long time, as if they could see the flowers.

Knowing what Zhao Shiyao suddenly thought, her face turned red all of a sudden, and she said casually: "What are you looking at...... It takes so long. ”

"Look at you." Zhu Cihong's voice was crisp and bright.

Zhao Shiyao smiled: "I've been watching it for a long time." ”

"I can't get enough of it." Zhu Cihong also smiled, and he sat closer.

This time, it was Zhao Shiyao who stared at Zhu Cihong quietly, and her breathing suddenly became a little short.

Zhao Shiyao entered the palace before, but she was not just worried about what happened to Zhao Shiyao before she got married according to the rules. Rather, it is to train the etiquette of the emperor's wedding this time. Nature...... You can also understand what the procedure is after a glass of wine.

Zhu Cihong got closer, and the male breath glowed with the aura of intoxication and the hormones of boys and girls.

Zhu Cihong hugged Zhao Shiyao, and our queen also fell gently into Zhu Cihong's arms, muttering softly: "Backwards...... Let my husband take a good look at it......"

There is a way......

The thin ice skin is clear, and the snow is greasy and crispy. Laughing Tanlang, tonight's kitchen pillow is cool......

Youyun:

Su about a small waist, reluctant to hurt the spring. New evening makeup under the shadow of sparse plum.

It looks like a light cloud.

The song skillfully moves the red lips, and the words are delicate.

Peach Blossom Deep Path One Tongjin ......

Sleepless tonight, happy all night. Since it is a good place for the Spring Festival, it is not enough for outsiders.

……

After a happy night, Zhu Cihong got up, and he only felt that there was a new impetus in this life.

For example, the aftermath of the previous big victory.

Located in the West Garden outside the Forbidden City, Zhu Cihong met a cadre of civil and military generals who came to meet him in the West Flower Hall. In addition to cabinet ministers such as Li Banghua, Gao Mingheng, Huang Daozhou, Fu Shuxun, and Yang Wenyue and Ni Yuanlu of the Privy Council, the meeting was made up of generals in the army. Hu Dawei, Chen Yongfu, Xia Chen, Liu Sheng, Fu Rugui, Liu Zhen, as well as Liu Quan of the artillery battalion and Xu Hong of the auxiliary baggage battalion. In addition, generals who are not part of the Guards Legion system also came. Including Li Guozhen, the main general of the Beijing camp, who played an unexpected role in this battle, Wu Sangui, who defected from the battle, Zhou Yuji, the general soldier of Shanxi, and Hu Dawei, who rushed from Ningyuan City.

In terms of civil officials, everyone saw Sun Chuanting, the trilateral governor who appeared in front of Zhu Cihong for the first time, but was known to everyone.

This legendary Ming Dynasty who died and the Ming Dynasty died today smiled happily and bowed to Zhu Cihong.

Obviously, everyone is congratulating Zhu Cihong on his new marriage.

After some commotion, Zhu Cihong greeted Li Banghua and Yang Wenyue and signaled the meeting to begin.

The two glanced at each other, Yang Wenyue coughed lightly, and talked about the establishment of the army. In particular, he also specially congratulated Chen Yongfu on winning the title of Jinwu Regiment.

At this time, Yang Wenyue was taking care of the generals who were no longer in the Central University before.

For example, Sun Chuanting listened to it with relish. He can be said to be a veteran of the two dynasties, but unlike the usual new emperor when the new emperor ascended the throne, the elders of the two dynasties were famous and powerful, although Sun Chuanting was the governor of the three sides, he stayed away from the center of the court for too long. So much so that it is not clear how many Zhu Cihong have.

But one thing Sun Chuanting is certain. That is, this young emperor obviously has the talent of God, which can create a powerful guard army under extremely weak circumstances, encircle and crush the invading army of Duoduo Jiannu, and first assist the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains in western Liao.

And naturally, Sun Chuanting had to use a hundred times more strength to bet into it and find a reason.

After all, this is a cause that none of the emperors of the three dynasties has done.

"Of course, the title of the Flying Bear Regiment is already there. Naturally, there is no need to mention it. Yang Wenyue said: "After this war, the Privy Council will give priority to the deployment of recruits of the Flying Bear Regiment and the assignment of seed officers of the Army Academy to help the Flying Bear Regiment recover its military strength." At the same time......"

Yang Wenyue sold a pass, and when he saw everyone watching, he bowed his hand to Zhu Cihong and said, "In accordance with my emperor's holy order: the imperial army will now be the 'Nirvana Plan'." ”

The so-called Nirvana plan is actually to readjust the imperial army system.

Anyone here knows deep enough that the Imperial Army has reached the point where it must be reformed. Once there was no hope, but now everything is possible.

Thanks to the consolidation of Zhu Cihong's governance in Henan, the largest source of refugees finally ceased to produce refugees. Colleagues, because the rebellion of the Shun army in Shaanxi was wiped out in less than a year, the back-and-forth war caused the local population to drop sharply, and objectively reduced the shortage of food, so that there was no large-scale quelling of unrest.

Therefore, when the central government's tax exemption policy was issued, Shaanxi, Shanxi, and Henan, the three sources of peasant uprisings, calmed down.

There was no civil strife, and the foreign enemy was beaten by Zhu Cihong in the Battle of Zunhua in a beautiful encirclement and annihilation battle. The war in the country ceased.

Subsequently, taxes from the source of Jiangnan began to be transported into Beijing through a mature shipping system.

The smooth operation of the empire's financial machinery, coupled with the spoils captured in the Battle of Deer and the Battle of Zunhua, Fu Shuxun, who is now in charge of the empire's finances, smiled, which rarely made the yamen of the household department a little relaxed.

On this basis, there are conditions for reform.

More importantly, the Imperial Army had reached the point where it had to be reformed. This is particularly urgent in the reality that the main force of the Zunhua Empire is only pursued by more than 10,000 people.

Of course, if we want to talk about the military reform of the Ming Empire, we have to start with the military reform of the empire that began in 1368. In general, the military division reform of the Ming Dynasty has evolved from the guard military system to the recruitment system, the Beijing camp and the border army. And all reforms are just adding new things to the existing foundation.

Because of the ancestral system, almost no emperor had the power and ability to fundamentally reform the military system. However, when it came to Zhu Cihong's hands, everything was obviously different.

Zhu Cihong wants comprehensive reform. And all this has to start with the military system of the guard.

The guards are the guards established during the Taizu period in the Hongwu period. The idea of the guard system is derived from the government and military system of the Tang Dynasty. Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang also pinned his hopes on the guard system, hoping that the Ming Dynasty would be able to have a million troops without spending huge military spending. In fact, in the later Ming Dynasty, Yunnan alone, at the most, there were 20 guards, 3 royals, and 18 (guards), with a total of 133 thousand households and about 148,960 guards. In the twenty-third year of Hongwu, there were a total of 547 internal and external guards and 2,563 offices in the Ming Dynasty. There are millions of troops.

It's a pity......
