Standing in front of the bronze mirror, Liu Che opened his hands and asked the maid to change into the brand-new clothes of the Son of Heaven that he had just sent from the Shaofu Inner Treasury.

According to the rules that Xiao He formulated for Liu Bang back then, the color of the clothes worn by the Son of Heaven in the spring, summer, autumn and winter court clubs of the Han Dynasty will change due to the changes of the four seasons.

This is the so-called 'number of the law and the heavens and the earth, and winning people in the middle'.

However, even Liu Bang himself was unwilling to abide by this rule, and it was abolished after only one implementation.

In the decades that followed, Liu's Tianzi basically wore it however he liked.

Emperor Taizong Xiaowen was frugal by nature, and only wore silk, leather, and red belts during his lifetime, and only changed into gorgeous clothes of the Son of Heaven during the Great Dynasty Ceremony.

Well, it is the set of black-clothed crowns designed by Shusun Tong on the basis of the emperor's crown of the Qin Dynasty.

Jia Yi once persuaded Emperor Taizong Xiaowen to establish the system of the Son of Heaven's clothes and crowns, however, it was useless.

To this day, the Liu family has not determined and prescribed what the emperor's clothes look like.

Like a crown, princes, princes, and even princes and princes can wear it.

And it is not much different from the crown of the emperor Lao Tzu - if there is really a difference, it may be that the pearls of the Son of Heaven have twelve rows, and the princes and princes have nine rows.

As for the clothes on the body, there are no taboos.

Basically, the emperor's regular clothes are basically the same as those of the scholars.

Only the sacrificial clothes and court clothes will make a certain distinction in color and decoration.

Therefore, in the early history of the Han Dynasty, there was often such a situation: the clothes of the rich dog families and the rich merchant landlord class were actually more luxurious and gorgeous than the emperor's......

Of course, there is one thing. Except for the emperor, ordinary people were not allowed to wear it.

That is the Liu crown invented by Emperor Taizu Gao Liu Bang.

What is the so-called Liu's crown?

To put it simply. It is a kind of crown made of bamboo bark that somewhat resembles a magpie's tail.

This crown has almost no technological content and is simple to manufacture. Because its inventor was Liu Bang, and Liu Bang loved to wear this crown during his lifetime, so after Liu Bang's death, this kind of crown became the exclusive domain of the emperor, and others could not wear it at will.

Except for this so-called Liu's crown, the old Liu family has not stipulated any kind of clothing that people are not allowed to wear.

Historically, the institutionalization of the Han Emperor's crown began during the reign of Xiao Zhu, and began to be established with the Confucian monopoly in order to distinguish the emperor from others.

But the little pig is just a patch. There was no hard and fast rule on what clothes could only be worn by the emperor, and not by the ministers and the common people.

Therefore, Emperor Xuan would often wear a short coat and run out of the palace.

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, the emperor's special clothes officially appeared.

The Han family is still black, and the clothes are generally dark red.

Now, the same is true of the set of clothes worn on Liu Che.

Liu Che stretched out his hand, took the Gaozu White Snake Sword handed over by Wang Dao, and let the maid tie the ribbon for herself.

The doors of the dormitory have been opened. Outside the door, countless fires burned violently.

The sky-high flames turned the entire Weiyang Palace into daylight.

The fire plate torch is placed in the middle of the Great Chaoyi Palace, which is one of the few existing weekly rites.

The left cross said: The princes are welcome. Dian set up the court to burn, and the Chinese language has clouds: the enemy country is the guest to the fire, and the fire master is in charge.

Kong Yingda of the Tang Dynasty once commented on this: set fire in the court. The ministers who came to the court to burn in at night entered because the fire was the fire.

The so-called court fire hundreds. That's about it, that's why. The ministers are also known as the hundred wives.

Facing the firelight, surrounded by hundreds of maids and eunuchs around him and Lang officials, Liu Che walked out of the dormitory.

A huge Son of Heaven chariot was already waiting at the gate of the temple.

"Have all the ministers arrived?" Liu Che asked.

The Han system, the great court, the ministers go to the Xuanshu Hall first, and the emperor will come after all the Qi arrives.

Therefore, every year of the Great Imperial Ceremony, the ministers and hundreds of officials will wait in advance at the bottom of the Beique Palace Gate.

Otherwise, if he is late for one reason or another, then the late minister can die!

How dare you enter the temple after the Son of Heaven?

Do you still have the heart to be a courtier?

Wang Dao replied beside him: "Your Majesty, the ministers have already arrived!" ”

After a slight pause, Wang Dao said again: "Please move your majesty to the Xuanshu Hall and comfort the ministers!" ”

Liu Che nodded, to be honest, he was also a little nervous in his heart.

This is the Great Pilgrimage!

The Western Han Dynasty version of the two sessions!

The counties and countries of the world, the nobles, the princes, the elders, and the relatives are all waiting for him, the emperor.

If you want to say that you are not nervous, you are a liar!

But Liu Che quickly calmed down, because he thought of his identity - I am the Son of Heaven, heaven and earth, I am the only one! Encore is afraid?

So, he lifted the ribbon and led his attendants to the chariot.

Around the car, hundreds of soldiers of the Tiger Ben Guard were already waiting for Liu Che's arrival under the leadership of Ji Meng.

"Your Majesty ......" drama Meng Ying stepped forward and bowed: "The minister is ordered to serve the car, please board the car!" ”

As the captain of Fengche, Ju Meng's job is actually to manage the car of the Son of Heaven, the commander of the Tiger Benwei, just to send it, and now, Ju Meng is back to his old job.

Liu Che boarded the chariot and, under the escort of the guards and attendants, marched towards the Xuanshu Palace.

Along the way, there were all soldiers and armor, and black flags fluttering.

Today's Weiyang Palace is almost full of soldiers, and the entire Northern Army and part of the Southern Army have entered all parts of Weiyang Palace to serve as security guards.

In other words, Weiyang Palace has now essentially become a huge barracks.

When the car arrived at the Xuanmuro Hall, the scene changed.

The guards of the Xuanmur Hall were all the tallest, strongest and most handsome soldiers of the northern and southern armies.

The minimum height requirement is seven feet.

These soldiers were all heavily armoured and armed with ritual weapons such as axes and swords.

These weapons, all of which are like goods, have no blades, and are basically not lethal.

This is also a tradition since the Zhou Dynasty, where the Son of Heaven will meet, no blades can be entrained, and all things that may endanger the personal safety of the Son of Heaven are excluded.

However, there are exceptions, such as Lang Zhong, the attendants, and the confessors who closely protect Liu Che, these hundreds of people are heavily armed and armed with murderous weapons.

This can probably be regarded as an innovation of the Han family.

Who told Jing Ke to assassinate King Qin back then to make a fuss, and everyone in the world knew about it?

In order to avoid the appearance of another Jing Ke second, but the Son of Heaven did not have protective measures, the Han family stipulated that the attendants, Lang officials and confessors around the Son of Heaven could carry weapons and blades.

In particular, Liu Che's henchmen and bodyguards were even allowed to carry murder weapons like short swords.

Liu Che's chariot arrived directly from the gate of the Xuanshu Hall to the inner palace of the Xuanshu Palace, and at the gate of the inner palace, Liu Che got off the chariot and entered the inner hall of the Xuanmu Hall directly from the temple gate on one side.

Where is the Empress Dowager Dou, the Empress Dowager Bo, and the Empress Chen Ajiao, the three most powerful women in the Han family, are already waiting for his arrival. (To be continued......)
