has been busy for more than half a year, and at the end of the year, Li Yi can finally take a breath and steal half a day of leisure. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

At noon on this day, the winter day was warm, the slightly yellow sun shone on the snow, and the cold air floated a trace of white mist, which gave the whole courtyard a dreamlike color.

Seeing this scene, Li Yi couldn't help but be thrived with poetry, and a famous sentence from the ages came out: "Jin Se has fifty strings for no reason, one string and one pillar Si Hua Nian." Zhuang Shengxiao dreams of butterflies, and hopes that the emperor will trust the cuckoo in spring. There are tears in the pearl of the sea and the moon, and the blue field is warm and the jade is smoking. This situation can be recalled, but it was already clear at the time. ”

Although in a sense, he had a very fulfilling year, and he participated in all the affairs of Northern Xinjiang, but Li Yi still felt idle and panicked.

He is a man born for war, and when he sees the chaos of the times, he can only watch from the wall. Although from a strategic point of view, this can be regarded as preserving strength, accumulating strength, and emulating the Great Qin Empire that swept through the Eight Desolations back then, the feeling of not being able to participate in person is very uncomfortable.

Therefore, Li Yi's last two words were recited with feeling, which made those who heard it coquettish.

"Sister, look at my husband, although I am accompanied by you and my sisters, there are still shortcomings. Listen, this situation can be recalled, but at that time, it was already confused, which woman was the husband thinking in his heart at the moment? Which one is the Tiger Girl, right? If you can't ask for it, tossing and turning, how can you have such a deep feeling? Minchan sighed with a pretended complaint.

Li Yi found that there are indeed differences between women before and after marriage, especially when there are more members in the back house and the relationship is more complicated.

"Ahem," Li Yi coughed lightly twice, and deliberately said with a straight face, "Chan'er, don't talk nonsense, be careful that I hit your board." ”

"If the king really wants to beat the concubine, the concubine should obey her fate." Where would Minchan be afraid of this?

Everyone in the palace knows that King Li Yi is easy-going, as long as he doesn't make mistakes, he won't show the side of thunder and thunder. In the back house, Li Yi has never stared, although he has seen Li Yi galloping on the battlefield, vertical and horizontal, Diao Chan still often has an illusion that she is not married to a world-famous hussar general, but a gentle and elegant scholar.

Counting the heroes in the world, how many people will accompany their wives and concubines to bask in the sun in the backyard in addition to busy government affairs?

Li Yi was enjoying himself with his wife here, and a female official came to report that it was the crown prince and the prince Cao Cao who came to ask for a meeting.

Cao Cao is the current teacher of Li Yan, the prince of the Tang Dynasty, and the reason why Li Yi asked Cao Cao to be Li Yan's teacher is mainly because Li Yan used to receive the teachings of Cai Yong and Zheng Xuan, and he acted too squarely. And he will definitely inherit his position in the future and become the king of a country, which is not a good thing. Therefore, after Cao Cao surrendered and came to Northern Xinjiang, Li Yi took the opportunity of being crowned King of Tang at the beginning, and let Cao Cao, a black and treacherous guy, be Li Yan's teacher, and let him learn more ways and means of behaving in the world.

Li Yi was a little surprised when he heard that Cao Cao asked to see him. Because since the surrender, he basically hasn't come to see himself alone, what's going on today? Could it be that the sun is coming out in the west?

Thinking so, Li Yi asked Cai Yan and Diao Chan to leave, and then ordered the female official to bring Cao Cao in.

After Cao Cao finished saluting, Li Yi asked with a smile: "Brother Meng De came to see Gu, I don't know what happened?" ”

Cao Cao said: "King, after the New Year, the prince will be sixteen years old. ”

Li Yi was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart that my son's birthday, I naturally know, and I still use you to remind me?

Li Yi's eldest son, Li Yan, is only just over fourteen years old now, but according to the Eastern Han Dynasty, he is indeed sixteen years old after the New Year.

Cao Cao saw Li Yi's puzzled look, and immediately said: "Cao is trying to remind the king that the prince should pay a ceremony after the New Year." ”

"Isn't it necessary to be twenty years old?" Li Yi asked.

The crown ceremony is a kind of Chinese national ceremony, and it is the coming-of-age ceremony of the Han men in ancient China. The crown ceremony indicates that a young man has reached a certain age, has reached sexual maturity, can marry, and from then on participate in various activities as an adult of the clan. The rite of passage is a rite of passage for young people to be recognized by clan elders in accordance with tradition.

The Han Dynasty was a weekly system, and men were twenty years old to observe the ceremony, which Li Yi still knew.

Cao Cao nodded and said, "What the king said is indeed good, but that is for ordinary children. In order to take charge of the state affairs as soon as possible, the princes of the Son of Heaven saluted more early. Legend has it that King Wen of Zhou was crowned at the age of twelve, and King Cheng was crowned at the age of fifteen. Now that the king is in charge of the world, how can the prince be the same as ordinary people. If you can crown early, the king will already have an arm around him. ”

Li Yi nodded and said, "That being the case, tomorrow the Lone King will discuss with Wenwu and set an auspicious day to be crowned." After that, let Li Yan's kid go to the military aircraft department and follow the military advisors to learn about the world's major events. ”

Li Yi came from a later generation, and he was open-minded in that era, and he became famous at the age of twenty. In fact, in Li Yi's previous life, he basically became an adult at the age of eighteen. Moreover, for the Eastern Han Dynasty, there are not a few people who have achieved fame at the age of fifteen or sixteen. Not to mention anything else, Ma Chao and Sun Ce are the best representatives, both of whom have followed their father on the battlefield when they were fifteen or sixteen years old.

………………

In the coming day, in the palace hall, Li Yi sat high facing the south, gathering hundreds of civil and military officials of the Tang Kingdom.

Li Yi said loudly: "Yesterday, the crown prince and the prince mentioned to King Gu that the prince Li Yan was about to turn sixteen years old, and when he should perform the crown ceremony, King Gu thought it was true, and decided to pick an auspicious day after the year to complete the crown ceremony as soon as possible. ”

When the officials heard this, they did not object. Because for this era, many ordinary people have already supported a family at the age of fifteen or sixteen, not to mention that Li Yan is the son of the world, and it is normal to perform a crown ceremony at the age of sixteen.

Only after the crown ceremony can the council be held, and even the Son of Heaven is no exception. This is the origin of the young Empress Dowager's rise to power.

It seems that King Tang intends to let the prince come to the front as soon as possible. This is also good news for the Tang Kingdom, if the Tang King hangs up that day, there will be no way for the Queen Mother to take power. Phew, when the hundred officials thought of this, they scolded themselves for their crow's mouth, the king lived a long life, and the national fortune could be prosperous.

Then when things get to this point, everything falls into place.

The crowning of the prince is a national event, and it cannot be hasty. The military advisors of the Military Aircraft Department are turning over the yellow calendar, and they are looking for the master of Yishu to calculate the date, and the Taoist temple has also run many times, and calculated that December 18 is a good day, and the crown ceremony can be carried out.

So the whole court was busy, there were tasks to run, and there were no tasks to prepare gifts, and when the East Palace was completed, it was sent inside, so that it was good to have a number in the heart of the prince.

On this day, the first day of December, Li Yi convened the military division of the Military Aircraft Department to discuss the specific process of the crown ceremony and the personnel who participated.

There is no need to choose the audience, all the civil and military officials in Jicheng have to arrive.

The crowning guest should be carefully chosen.

"So, who will crown my son," Li Yi asked.

The crowned person must meet the requirements of high moral respect in order to serve as a life guide and model for the crowned person. Generally speaking, male elders such as grandfathers and fathers, who have majesty and prestige in the family, are the most suitable candidates.

Li Yi, as the master, can no longer be the crowner. And Li Yi's father and grandfather died early, and even his uncle Li Zan died two years ago, and his cousin Li Xuan, although he has a certain reputation in northern Xinjiang, but as the crowner, he is not enough. Therefore, Xun Yu came out of the class and said: "The old man Cai Yong is really a teacher of the world, and he is highly respected, and it is best for the old man to crown the scholar." ”

This candidate is very much in line with Li Yi's thoughts, and this is decided.

The next thing to be determined is the assistant "Praiser" of Zhengbin crowning.

Xun Yu said again: "You can choose the division commander, and Mr. Kang Cheng should be this candidate." ”

Zheng Xuan is the first teacher since Li Yan became sensible, and he is famous enough, and he is as famous as Cai Yong, so it is very suitable for him to come forward.

It can be said that in today's era, Cai Yong and Zheng Xuan are the Taishan Beidou in the minds of the world's corporals, god-like figures, and it is definitely the best choice for the two of them to preside over Li Yan's crown ceremony.

So, Li Yi said: "In this case, Kang Chenggong is the praiser." ”

Next is the "Ariji", and the responsibility of the Ariji in the crown ceremony is the person who adds the crown to the tray preparation. Because the crown of the Eastern Han Dynasty is Sanjia, the meaning of Sanjia is the hat worn on different occasions in Sanzhong, so three people are needed. It is generally held by siblings or friends, and this is a good choice, Li Yi's second, third, and fourth sons can serve as it, and they can also experience it when they attend such a solemn occasion.

In this way, the personnel are complete, and the rest of the preparations are decided by the Military Aircraft Department.

………………

Time has come to December 18 in the tenth year of Jian'an.

On this day, in the solemn music of ceremonies, Tang King Li Yi led hundreds of civil and military officials to the temple in the Tang Palace.

There are no women who participate in such a crown ceremony. At the same time, no men participated in the women's ceremony. This is called internal and external separation.

Li Yi wore the crown and entered the temple first, and the imperial honor guards around him were all available to show the emperor's majesty.

Subsequently, the drums outside were loud, and after the three-way earth-shaking drums were completed, the civil and military officials entered the hall and lined up on both sides.

After Cai Yong, Zheng Xuan and other Binzan were in place, the music started again.

Li Yi was on the throne under the hall, and the general of the guards on the side, Dian Wei, bowed out, handed the crowned edict to the waiter, the waiter knelt down to catch it, and turned around and shouted: "The crown of the prince, the hundred officials salute, and the four bows." ”

The civil and military officials were very excited, and said in their hearts that the prince was crowned, and there was a successor to the Tang family.

So, the civil officials, headed by Xu Maogong and the military general Yue Fei, fell to the ground together, and shouted in unison: "Tang Muxing!" ”

In the midst of the call, Li Yi looked at the blue sky outside the hall from afar, with a smile on his face that he had never seen before. And the civil and military officials seem to have been able to see that the world is about to rise under the guidance of the Tang Dynasty.
