- Wenwan slowly looked at the palace. It was still enjoyable to watch; the colorful screens, placed under the sunlight, were exquisite. Strips of silk and satin were flying in the palace, colorful. Together with the whole palace, it is beautiful and imaginary. Wen Wan thought, if it was at night, the effect would definitely be better, it would definitely be like a fairyland.
Under gentle request, the prince explained the architectural layout of the palace one by one.
The main buildings of the palace are divided into six halls and the harem, namely Taihe Hall, Zhonghe Hall, Baohe Hall, Wenhe Hall, Yanghe Hall; the harem includes Kunning Palace and the Sixth East and West Palaces.
Hall of Supreme Harmony: There are a large number of special furnishings on the outside. The bronze tripod, bronze turtle, and bronze crane on the platform in front of the palace are used to burn incense during the ceremony, and they have the meaning of solid rivers and mountains. The sundial and Jialiang placed on the platform are used to symbolize imperial power. It is used to worship Zhi.
Zhonghe Hall: It is the place where the emperor rested before the grand ceremony in Taihe Hall and received letters from officials and bowed.
Baohe Hall: On the top of the eaves, with a width of nine rooms, it is the place where the emperor changed his clothes during the ceremonies such as the appointment of the queen and the crown prince.
Wende Hall: During festivals such as New Year's Day, Lantern Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, Double Ninth Festival, Winter Solstice, and Wanshou, the emperor held court ceremonies and gave banquets here. The imperial examination was also held in Wende Hall
Taihe Hall: This is the place where the Queen receives congratulations from ministers on New Year¡¯s Day, Qianqiu (the Queen¡¯s birthday) and other festivals;
Yanghe Hall: Most emperors lived here.
Then they are in Wende Hall now. The prince said softly, the real spectacle is in the Hall of Supreme Harmony. I'll have a chance to go there in the future. Looking at Wende Hall, there is nothing to see.
Wen Wan rolled her eyes, the Hall of Supreme Harmony is so easy to enter. Not even an ancestral temple, no. A child who couldn't even get into the family tree could still get into the Hall of Supreme Harmony. Not to say it's impossible, but even if it were possible, the emperor would probably be drowned in the spit of his imperial envoy. Of course, it is also possible to go secretly without being discovered. But the palace is heavily guarded, and it's not a vegetable market, so you can sneak in anywhere!
"Dad, the one above seems to be gentle." The prince's eyes were sharper. At first glance, you can see the gentleness of the upper steps.
"Impossible, how could she be in the main hall and still wearing court clothes? How is this possible?" Ping Guogong didn't believe it. But looking at that look, he was clearly gentle.
"I guess it's the emperor's decision." The prince smiled bitterly. I think the emperor has been informed of what he has done in the past few days. The emperor will definitely bring shame on the Taira family now.
The other ministers were all discussing why a child ran out of the main hall. Still someone I don¡¯t know. Everyone was wondering if she was King Zheng¡¯s daughter. If anyone knows anything, just whisper over there.
When the prince saw a row of eunuchs coming over, he stopped talking. Wenwan knows. The tense moment has come. Hurry up and sit down. How do you know that the eunuch is there. After reading for a long time, Wen Wan's straight spine ached and he stopped. Anyway, there are a lot of them.
"The Emperor has arrived." It's true, he came out after being called for a long time!
"Long live my emperor, long live the emperor." The deafening voice resounded throughout the vast land. Wen Wan's ears were buzzing.
An opening speech praising the emperor's great achievements made Wen Wan feel sleepy. If Qi Yan hadn't pinched her from time to time, she might have fallen asleep. Hear tribute gifts. Wenwan opened her eyes. See if any rare treasures will appear. Everyone presented gifts one after another. The name Wen Wan sounds good, but it's a pity. She looked down upon it. The emperor took a casual glance and let him go.
But among them is the Splendid Mountain and River Picture of the fifth prince, King Zhao. It did make the emperor give two thumbs up. But there is no great interest. Others are just curios. It¡¯s okay to be neither impressive nor disrespectful. Wen Wan thought about it and gently asked Qi Yan what gift her uncle had prepared. As soon as I finished writing, the Eighth Prince, His Highness Prince Zheng, was called over to come forward and offer a gift. It¡¯s not that there were seven princes and so many uncles and princes in front of me, so how could it be my uncle¡¯s turn so soon?
The prince looked at Wen Wan who was curious and dazed, and felt helpless. In the past two hours or so, I didn¡¯t know how many times I was in a daze. I don't know what she is thinking, and I don't know if she will be punished for misconduct in court later. Several princes have passed before us, and it will be my father's turn. I don¡¯t know what my father is thinking about bringing Wen Wan to the main hall.
"How come the emperor's grandfather doesn't even look at their gifts." He gestured. The prince was very helpless. When he got here, he was not only in a daze, Wenwan also became a curious baby, asking questions about everything. I've never seen her have so many problems before. It's so big! She didn't see anyone else sitting there, staring intently at the stage, but she was the only one dancing. I wonder if this is already a particularly eye-catching mission! It caused me to get extra attention.
"This box is a gift prepared by my father for you. Take it. Come up with me later. Here is the birthday boy. "Qi Yan gave Wen Wan a brocade box.
Wenwan puts it aside.
The eunuch chanted King Zheng's name. King Zheng held a box, knelt in the middle, raised his hands high, and said a congratulatory speech. The eunuch took the things up and opened them for the emperor to see. Listen to Wen Wan, it is a Diamond Sutra. Not very impressive.
"Is this gift for you alone, or for the three of you?" From the beginning of the emperor's presentation of gifts, until now, except for the two routine sentences. This is considered the first opening of Chrysostom. King Zheng said that this was just a gift from himself, and it was his filial piety.
When Qi Yan heard this, he quickly pulled Wen Wan to the middle of the hall and both knelt down. After Qi Yan knelt down, he held up a small box. Turning to look at Wen Wan, she realized that she didn't hold the box prepared for her, and she wailed in her heart. She just gave it to her and seriously stated that it was her father who had prepared a gift for her imperial grandfather, so why didn't she take it. He walked into the main hall without a gift, and now he was in big trouble. They wanted to ask King Zheng for help, but King Zheng was kneeling there, looking at his nose and heart, and ignored them at all.
Wen Wan didn¡¯t even think about it. She picked up a small roll of paper from her sleeve, followed the pattern of a gourd, held the thing in both hands and raised it over her head, raising it high. The Crown Prince breathed a sigh of relief when he saw her preparing a gift. But soon my heart was high again. She knew nothing about what should be taboo or avoided in the inner courtyard of the palace. What to do if there is a collision.
Everyone looked at the appearance in the center of the hall and murmured to themselves. The emperor looked at what Wen Wan was holding, thinking that King Zheng said that Wen Wan had been practicing a pair recently. Nonstop, day and night. But I got curious.
Qi Yan was very depressed, but when things came to a close, he had no choice but to bite the bullet. The eunuch quickly collected their gifts. The emperor saw the panic in Prince Zheng's eyes, and then looked at the smiling Wenwan. With great interest, he asked the eunuch to open the two gifts that he had received and let them spread them out for a look. The prince is very ordinary, a statue of Amitayus Buddha, nothing new.
But when they opened Wen Wan's gift, several eunuchs twitched their mouths. It was a couplet. The cut paper was relatively even, but the writing was too ugly. Several characters are sometimes big and sometimes small. The length and thickness of the strokes of each character, as well as the thickness of the ink, are all different. They look like dogs crawling. They are really ugly and cannot be seen. Several eunuchs were chuckling inwardly. They dared to bring up such a thing. They were so audacious. I thought this was just playing house! Nor was he afraid of the emperor's anger.
The couplet was spread out for the emperor to see. After reading the couplet, the emperor rarely nodded, "Well, you can write like this after just a few days of practice. Not bad. Your practice day and night is not in vain."
Wen Wan was confused, how did the emperor¡¯s grandfather know that I practiced calligraphy day and night.
The eunuch took another small note and spread it out to the emperor. After the emperor saw it, he laughed. Everyone in the hall was surprised and confused. The emperor had a pale face after receiving so many gifts. Now, what was written on this note that could make the emperor smile.
"I have never heard of this couplet. Read it." The emperor asked the eunuch to read the couplet.
The eunuch recited: "The first couplet is 'Praise to Chun Zuoji for the great age', and the second couplet is 'A banquet to celebrate your birthday and honor the heaven.'
Hengbiao: Longevity without borders. "
This is a congratulatory couplet. The emperor asked, who knows about this couple. No one down there knows.
The emperor asked Wen Wan, "Wen Wan, did you come up with this couplet yourself?"
Wen Wan shook her head and wrote three words on the prince's hand. The prince looked at Wen Wan, then at the emperor, and finally at Prince Zheng, feeling a headache. The emperor asked again, and said, "Back to the emperor, my cousin said that she didn't know either. She said that she knew that the emperor's sixtieth birthday was the birthday, so this birthday couplet popped up in her head."
When the emperor heard what Wen Wan said, the smile on his face became even brighter. "Wen Wan, grandpa is very satisfied with your gift. You gave grandpa such a good gift, and grandpa also gave you a gift. Tell me what you want." "
Wen Wan shook her head and gestured a few times. The prince was waiting for an explanation when he heard the emperor say, "That is a reward. Grandpa also wants to give Wen Wan a gift now. Say, what do you want?"
Wen Wan shook her head, saying that she didn¡¯t want anything. Then he glanced at Prince Zheng, his eyes lit up, and he wanted to show off that he wanted to live with his uncle. The emperor's movements were faster than hers.
"Grandpa will grant you the title of princess. I'm satisfied." The emperor smiled widely. The emperor wanted to see Wen Wan's reaction. However, Wen Wan's reaction was not so quick, because Wen Wan didn't know exactly what level it was at this time, but other people did.
As soon as these words came out, the whole room was shocked. Princess? If the princess marries an ordinary person, the daughter she gives birth to will be the princess of the county at most. Only those who are favored can be granted the title of princess. It's not that Wen Wan can't be crowned a princess, it's just that she has a mute disease, which is very taboo not only for the royal family, but also for ordinary people.I feel that this child must have done something wrong in her previous life and God will punish her. So, normally speaking, Wenwan is mute. It is impossible to have a title or title, and it will not be recorded on the jade plate.
Thinking like this, everyone came to their senses. What Wen Wan was wearing was the imperial robe of the princess rank. Many people who are familiar with the facts know it very well. How could the emperor's granddaughter be so easily bullied? (To be continued) - Didn't finish reading?
