Side of the Jade Throne

Eleven days after the abdication of King Yu of the previous generation, there was a sound of the Kingdom of Shun in the Wutong Palace, and King Liu ascended the throne, and the king's flag was raised in the temple, and the Phoenix spread the message to all countries at the same time.

long summer palace

In the court hall, Zuo Zai Jianxi temporarily served as the false king, presiding over the affairs of the court.When the former king Xuan Kuo was still alive, as Xuan Kuo's deputy, he had witnessed Xuan Kuo's handling of certain affairs, but when it was his turn, he felt that the responsibility was heavy and he was powerless.

The worry of Xie Xi is almost the worry of all the officials. They have been accustomed to obey the king's instructions these years, and Xuan Kuo, who has always been virtuous, suddenly abdicated, which really caught the officials of Shun Kingdom by surprise.Although Lieqi is still there, and the country's previous changes were considered smooth, it is not uncommon to find a new king for a long time and cause a crisis in the mountains...

Just when the officials of the Shun Kingdom were worried about the country, Ersheng came to report, and the white pheasant made a sound. All the officials were dumbfounded and couldn't believe it.

Taifu found the new king so quickly, which is good news for the Shun Kingdom. The king's flag was raised in the temple, and the people of the Shun Kingdom felt like falling into a dream again from the consternation of the abdication of a generation of virtuous kings.

Zuka Zai took a deep breath and ordered: "Get ready to welcome the new king immediately!"

When Zhenye saw the Changxia Palace, he stood up suddenly.

This is where she grew up, where she has always been a writer, and from now on, will be where she will die.

——Guarding the former home until the end of life, this idea made Zhenye feel a little warm for the first time since Xuankuo passed away.

"Huaizhen." Zhenye suddenly said.

"My lord." Lueqi looked at Zhenye who spoke for the first time after taking the oath, and followed her obediently.

"In the future, there will be only us." Her calm eyes fell on Lieqi, and she said quietly.

"My lord will make an excellent king."

Zhenye snorted and didn't answer.

"Let's go." Xuanwu has landed in Changxia Palace.Zhenye walks ahead, towards the Changxia Palace where there is no Xuankuo for the first time.

All the officials knelt down on the ground, and Zhenye walked steadily among the crowd, walked to the front, and after accepting the worship, called the crowd.

Hexi stepped forward, before he could introduce himself, he listened to the new king's way: "Jianxi, since the former king passed away, is there any difference between Kyushu and the government?"

Rao Shijianxi did not look down on this strange new king very much, and was surprised by Zhenye's words. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw that there was nothing unusual about Taifu, so he saluted the new king again, saying: "The old king has abdicated since the eleventh day. On this day, there is nothing that the Lord asked about."

Zhenye nodded slightly, and ordered: "Today is not a formal enthronement ceremony, and you and Shangzhi, Huanchu, Chongyuan, and Xiaoen will come to the study later."

"Yes, my lord." He breathed out and bowed in response, in his heart he was very surprised that the new king could command the four officials of heaven, spring, summer and autumn so freely.

After Zhenye gave his instructions and rested, he said to Yuqi: "I'll go back and change first, and you and the four adults will come to the study later."

"Yes, my lord."

Without ordering any attendants to lead the way, Zhenye went straight to his residence, the East Palace.

Jianxi breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Lieqi: "Taifu, my lord..."

Jianxi was hesitant to speak but stopped, and Lieqi glanced coldly at the old friend of the former king, and said: "Although more than 20 years have passed, but Jianxi, have you forgotten Zhenye?"

"Zhenye?" Jianxi naturally remembered his old friend's beloved daughter.When Xuan Kuo was still the head of the sky, he was the head of the earth.One day, I suddenly saw my old friend holding a beautiful baby girl, with black hair and black eyes, cute and cute... That child was the only child in Changxia Palace at that time, and Juxi watched the child grow up.

"The child has been missing for 23 years. It is said that he is traveling, but unfortunately he has never even seen the last face of the late king." Thinking about it, he still sighs.

"The new king is Zhenye." Lieqi said.

"Zhenye!? But didn't she become a fairy at the age of 13?"

"Shun's take care of the revolving sundial, does Mr. Zhong remember it?"

"So that's how it is." Jianxi suddenly said, he recalled that just now, not only his appearance, but he really didn't have half the high-spirited spirit of Zhenye in the past.

"I'm going to find the master, you will call Shang Zhi and them to the study later."

"Yes, Taifu."

When Lieqi found Zhenye in the East Palace, she was fiddling with her former princess uniforms. The costumes of those 13-year-old girls were no longer suitable in terms of stature and rank.

"Lord."

"I see." Zhenye put down his old clothes and said, "I'm going to meet them now."

When Zhenye came to the door of the study, the female officials and waiters all knelt down on the ground to welcome her and Huaizhen. She stared at the familiar plaque. There is no longer the helpless and indulgent smile of the father.

The female official opened the door for Zhenye, and the officials in the study, Zhongzai Jianxi, Tianguan Shangzhi, Chunguan Huanchu, Xiaguan Zhongyuan, and Qiuguan Xiaoen saluted Zhenye and Huaizhen together.

"Everyone, please stand up." Zhenye shouted, while sitting in the seat where Xuan Kuo used to sit, "Hanxi, Huanchu, the official enthronement ceremony is simple except for courtesy to foreign envoys."

"My lord, I'm afraid this is a bit inappropriate." Da Zong Bohuan stepped forward to remonstrate.

"It's been less than a month since the late king abdicated. This is my respect for the late king." Zhenye said coldly.

Huanchu looked disapproving, took a look at Jianxi, and saw that he shook his head slightly, so he stopped talking, took a step back, and saluted with Jianxi: "Yes, my lord."

"Chongyuan, the military dispatch before and after the enthronement ceremony follows the old rules."

"Yes, my lord."

"Xiaoen." Zhenye looked at the only one of the six officials she didn't know, "Respect the old rules, the new king should be amnesty when he ascends the throne, this time I added an item to the list of amnesty: the remaining sentence is within three years and is alive Those whose parents are over [-] years old will be released the day before the enthronement ceremony, and after the release, [-]% of the corvee will be added to the original remaining sentence.”

"The Lord is merciful."

Finally, Zhenye looked at the youngest of the officials present, her old friend Shang Zhi, the official of heaven.

"Shang Zhi, close the Yan bedroom, I want to live in the East Palace."

Shang Zhi blinked his eyes, and the young Qingjun's appearance was a little childish and cute: "Of order." After he finished speaking, he asked again, "Did Zhenye use the legendary meteor sundial?"

"Princess?" Huanchu and Chongyuan spoke together, but seeing Zhenye looking at Shangzhi, he agreed, "As expected of Shangzhi, who is as careful as a hair, he didn't even discover Jianxi, but you discovered it."

Shang Zhi bowed and said: "Master Zhong Zai has known the Lord for a long time, but after all, he has served as an adjutant under the Lord for many years than the lower officials." He knew Lian Zhenye's concern for the meteor sundial.

Shangzhi's familiarity as always makes Zhenye seem to go back to the old days, when she was the Dazai and Shangzhi was the Xiaozai.

Zhenye showed the first smile of the late king after his death, even though it was too shallow to be seen.

Zhenye's enthronement ceremony is scheduled for the next month, twenty days later.If it is a new king from the eternal world, these 20 days will experience the phobia of enthronement: frantically supplementing court etiquette and the most basic court operation mode; The world view began to be re-forged; but for the Zeng Guan to the Tai Tuo's career, it was extremely idle.

On the third day before the enthronement ceremony, Zhenye finally saw Taiqi again.

Taiqi was brought by Huaizhen.It was the first time he came to Changxia Palace, but he didn't care about admiring the palace at all, he just wanted to see Zhenye quickly.

When Taiqi saw Zhenye, she was watching Shangzhi go fishing. She wore a royal robe, but she was much calmer than when he left Baigui Palace. Even seeing his smile was a little fragile. Not knowing what to say, he heard Zhenye speak.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Wang, I should, but I can't wait for you in Baigui Palace."
