Raising a Dog is Better than Palace Fight Chapter 85

Chapter 85 After sealing

　　The day before the empress candidacy, the emperor would send officials from the Ministry of Rites to offer sacrifices to heaven and earth and the Ancestral Temple, and personally go to the Fengxian Hall to pay homage. The next day, Luan Yiwei Chen managed to drive Luan Bo outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and arranged the Queen's ceremonial carriage under the palace steps and outside the palace gate; the music club under the Ministry of Rites hung the instruments outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and then the Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple Officials set up festival cases in the middle of the Hall of Supreme Harmony facing south, registration cases on the left to the west, jade cases on the right to the east, and two dragon pavilions inside the cabinet door. The internal supervisor set up Danbi Le inside the palace gate, and set up the festival table in the middle of the palace, both facing south. There were also treasure book cases on both sides of the palace gate (oriented east-west), and the queen's worship table was placed in front of the incense table. When the auspicious time comes, the officials of the Ministry of Rites will place the gold volume, gold treasures and the inscriptions and inscriptions in the dragon pavilion.

　　The queen arrived in full attire and stopped at the entrance of the Hall of Supreme Harmony. She knelt down and saluted in front of the festival case, the book case, and the jade case. She listened to the officials of the Ministry of Rites reciting the book, received the gold book and gold treasures, and then walked to the Jinluan Hall to join the emperor. After accepting the homage of hundreds of officials, he returned to Kunning Palace and accepted the homage of his wife accompanied by the Queen Mother.

　　This set of procedures is long and cumbersome, and there is a dinner party in the evening. It must be extremely luxurious and grand to show the respect of the queen's status. The Minister of Rites tried to figure out the emperor's thoughts, further enhanced the ceremony, and submitted it to the emperor for review.

　　"Get rid of the ritual case, the memorial case, the kneeling of the jade case, get rid of the process of reciting the book, directly award the gold book and gold treasure, and get rid of the dinner in the evening." Emperor Wu of Zhou read the memorial and read it in succession with his pen, and summarized all unnecessary procedures. Once rejected, only two items were left: accepting officials and paying homage to married women.

　　The Minister of Rites only agreed, but he was very surprised and couldn't figure out what the emperor's intention was. It is unprecedented for the conferment ceremony to be so crude. Could it be that the emperor's love for the imperial concubine was all fake? If the empress conferment ceremony is really held according to this kind of regulations, you can imagine how much damage the queen's dignity will be, and it may be difficult to gain a foothold in the harem.

　　But soon, the emperor's next words let him know that he was thinking too much.

　　Emperor Wu of Zhou considered it over and over again and added one more item to the memorial - all doctors from Mingtai Hospital will accompany him throughout the whole process and cannot slack off.

　　"Okay, let's go down and make arrangements! Everything is centered on the queen's body." The young emperor said in a very cautious tone. The Minister of Rites did not dare to neglect and agreed immediately.

　　As the articles of association continued to be announced, all the officials had their own thoughts. Except for the emperor's close ministers, many people began to look down upon the new queen, and even the concubines secretly laughed at her and were about to make a move. But on the day before he was granted the title of Empress, the emperor personally offered sacrifices to heaven and earth and to the Ancestral Temple. He knelt three times and kowtowed nine times in the Fengxian Hall with a pious attitude, which somewhat calmed everyone's restless thoughts.

　　On the day when he was granted the title of Queen, Emperor Wu of Zhou woke up at exactly the right time. When he saw the woman curled up in his arms, sleeping peacefully, he smiled happily. Today, Sang Yu will become his wife, sitting together in the same car and riding in the same car when leaving, walking side by side in this prosperous world, sharing joy, anger, sorrow, and loneliness.

　　Through the air, he traced Sang Yu's delicate eyebrows one by one with his fingertips. His eyes were fascinated, and he was mesmerized for a moment. When there was a sound outside, Chang Xi reported softly from outside the bed curtain, "It's time for the emperor to get up." Only then did he realize that he had been staring at Sang Yu for almost an hour.

　　Laughing dumbly, he shook Sang Yu gently, trying to wake her up. If it had been in the past, he would have kissed, kissed, licked and bit her, using Abao's method to make her wake up quickly. But now she was extremely unhappy. Not only had her appetite been greatly reduced, she was sleepy all day long, and there was also a faint black and blue appearance under her eyes, which made him feel distressed. If not necessary, he would always get out of bed quietly and let her sleep until dawn.

　　But today was different. If she had waited for her to wake up naturally, she would have missed the ceremony of becoming a queen.

　　"Sang Yu, get up quickly, today is a big day for you and me." He pinched Sang Yu's pointed nose, his words were full of smiles.

　　Meng Sangyu kept shaking her head to avoid, but the other party was too persistent, so she simply pulled the brocade quilt and wrapped herself into a silkworm chrysalis, revealing only a strand of black and smooth hair.

　　The smile in Emperor Zhou Wu's eyes grew stronger. He fished her out into the cave, put his hand in and rubbed her slightly bulging belly, and coaxed softly, "It's time to get up, be good! As we promised in advance That way, as long as you go over and let the officials and wives pay homage, you won't be tired. You can come back and catch up on your sleep after you're done, okay?"

　　He touched the cocoon with his forehead, and the cocoon moved. It took a long time before the shell was rustled open, revealing a sleepy little face.

　　"You promise it will be done soon!" she emphasized sleepily.

　　"I promise." Emperor Zhou Wu suppressed a smile and smoothed out her messy hair one by one. Sang Yu became more and more real in front of him, and every small step forward made him ecstatic.

　　The master is really becoming more and more proud of his favor! Nanny Feng shook her head secretly, came in with Yincui and Bishui, set out a set of toiletries, walked to the couch and was about to help her master wash up when the emperor took over in person. Having long been accustomed to the emperor's personal actions, she immediately let go and stepped aside.

　　Emperor Wu of Zhou wiped Sang Yu's face and hands clean, and put her into bright red clothes. Seeing that her pale face looked much better against the clothes, he couldn't help but squint his eyes and give her a gentle kiss on the cheek. After carrying Sang Yu to bed, he combed her black hair, put on her embroidered shoes, carefully wrapped her in a robe and carried her to the dining table outside. Only then did Emperor Zhou Wu officially wake her up.

　　"Sang Yu, it's time for breakfast. Sour bamboo shoots, diced pork pancakes, and scallions for dipping sauce. Smell it, it's delicious." He put his arm around Sang Yu's slender waist and stirred it up with the other hand, letting the scallions and sour sauce mix. The smell of bamboo shoots spreads. Because of Sangyu's weird taste, he also began to get used to these country foods.

　　Meng Sangyu secreted saliva rapidly in his mouth, and finally woke up leisurely. Seeing that he was refreshed and neatly dressed, he gave the man a good morning kiss with satisfaction. The man chuckled, picked up a piece of cooking pancake, wrapped the green onions dipped in sauce into a roll, handed it to the woman, and said softly, "Eat it."

　　"Thank you." Meng Sangyu took it and took a bite, not very elegantly. But the man knew that this was her most natural and frank side, and the smile on his face became deeper.

　　Aunt Feng and others all lowered their heads and sighed secretly in their hearts: Since the master became pregnant, the emperor has become more and more virtuous.

　　After breakfast, Chang Xi took the emperor's and empress' court clothes into the inner hall and called a group of palace servants to help them put them on. The imperial uniform was simple and domineering, and he was quickly put on, but Meng Sangyu was still struggling with the imperial crown, imperial beads, imperial robes, and imperial gown. Although the imperial concubine's court dress is also bright yellow, its level of luxury is far from comparable to that of the queen's court dress.

　　The nine phoenixes on the queen's court dress are embroidered with gold threads and decorated with pearls and broken jade, making them dazzling from a distance. A nine-tailed phoenix made of gold is inlaid on the top of the crown. Each tail feather is inlaid with five-color gems. The phoenix in the middle also holds a huge east pearl in its mouth, with a faint splendor flowing in it. This outfit alone is enough to drive women all over the world crazy. No wonder so many concubines in the palace are trying their best to get into the lower ranks.

　　A is arsenic, B is honey. At this moment, Meng Sangyu was not very happy. Instead, he was worried about the more than ten kilograms of weight on his head. She held her crown with both hands, walked stiffly up to the smiling emperor, shook her neck and complained, "You still say you're not tired, but this look alone can crush me to death!"

　　"Don't talk nonsense on such a great day!" Emperor Wu of Zhou pinched her slightly pouted pink lips and said helplessly, "You lean on me first, and when you get to the Hall of Supreme Harmony, you can only hold on for half an hour."

　　The two of them walked into the palace hand in hand. Emperor Wu of Zhou leaned slightly so that Sang Yu could place his chin on his shoulder. The slight weight made him frown immediately. This crown was really heavy. Should the ceremony be streamlined?

　　But it was too late at this time, all the regulations had been arranged, and Yu Hu soon arrived at the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

　　"I'll go in first and wait for you in the Jinluan Palace." The man gently kissed the woman on the lips, his deep eyes full of love and expectation.

　　Meng Sangyu felt embarrassed by him and rubbed his shoulder lovingly. The two hugged each other quietly for a moment, and then they got out of the sedan chair when the ritual music started playing. The emperor went to the main hall first, and the queen received the gold book and gold treasure in front of the hall. Under the attention of all the officials, she slowly climbed onto the throne and joined hands with the emperor.

　　Because the emperor had given instructions in advance, the text was greatly simplified, and it was read out in less than half a cup of tea. Meng Sangyu took the gold book and gold treasure with both hands, walked on the soft red carpet, and walked step by step to the Golden Palace. The accompanying imperial doctor hid behind the officials watching the ceremony, his eyes firmly fixed on the queen's face, and he did not dare to slack off at all.

　　Stepping into the main hall, all the officials on both sides looked at the new queen. A bright yellow figure walks from far to near, with a bright and flamboyant face, and a graceful and noble demeanor. It is like strolling in the courtyard under the attention of everyone, which makes some people's contempt less.

　　The emperor on the throne stood up as soon as the queen appeared and took two steps forward. Although his handsome face tried to remain solemn, his slightly trembling lips still betrayed his excitement. It stands to reason that the emperor only needs to sit and wait in the palace, and when the queen steps onto the high platform, he can stand up and give her a little support. Such an extremely urgent move by the emperor made all the ministers think carefully.

　　Meng Sangyu raised his head and straightened his chest, looking at the man standing on the high platform with his hands behind his back, his steps unhurried and slow. After stepping onto the first step, the man suddenly stepped down from the high platform and stretched out his hand towards her.

　　The emperor came down to greet her personally. No queen had ever had such an honor since the founding of the Zhou Dynasty. Who says the queen is not valued by the emperor? What nonsense! The courtiers who despised the queen because of the simplicity of the ceremony were shocked and quickly lowered their heads.

　　Meng Sangyu calmly held the man's extended hand, feeling the slippery layer on his palm, and frowned slightly. Are you sweating so nervously? Are you looking forward to this moment so much? Thinking like this, she raised her head to look at the man, and saw the deep and incomprehensible affection in his dark eyes, and her mind went blank for a moment.

　　Emperor Zhou Wu smiled, held her hand tightly, and brought her to him. He wanted to bite the woman's lips hard and declare his joy with a passionate kiss, but when his eyes touched the ministers below, he had to hold back.

　　"From now on, you are my wife." He whispered in the woman's ear, and the satisfaction in his words was palpable.

　　"From now on, you are my husband." Meng Sangyu recovered from the surprise, looked at the man seriously for the first time, and declared his sovereignty seriously for the first time, every word was ringing. Since she couldn't escape, and since this person was somewhat sincere, she would gamble her life's happiness. After two lives, she has a tough enough heart to withstand failure.

　　Husband, Emperor Zhou Wu chewed these two intimate and hot words carefully, put his arms around Sang Yu's shoulders and smiled. Meng Sangyu looked back and smiled.

　　The mighty and domineering emperor, the graceful queen, the two bright yellow figures on the high platform were intimate and complemented each other, leaving the most profound impression on the minds of the ministers.

　　The union of the emperor and the empress is truly a blessing for the Great Zhou Dynasty!
