Chapter 1098 The canonization has arrived!
The ancient Chinese ritual system was very detailed. According to the etiquette of the imperial era, no official could walk side by side with the emperor when he walked.
Being able to walk side by side with the emperor is a very high courtesy. The title of the king of side by side symbolizes this person and has a status comparable to the emperor.
The princes of the Ming Dynasty, the princes and princes of the Qing Dynasty were divided into "one-character king" and "two-character king". "one-character king" was second only to the emperor in the title system!
The emperor's legitimate son can be named Yiziwang!
Several sons of Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, were all named "Yiziwang", such as "Yan King", "Qin King". And so on!
The "two-character king" has a low status. If the emperor's nephew or other members of the royal family make great contributions, they can get this title. Zhu Shouqian, a nephew of Zhu Yuanzhang in the early Ming Dynasty, was named "King of Jingjiang" in Guilin!
The kings of the Qing Dynasty had only mansions and no fiefdoms. Once, a royal member of the Qing Dynasty, Luke Dehun was named "Shuncheng County Prince". The original site of the royal palace was located, and the location of the current National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference building in the 21st century later.
In the 1930s, Zhang Xueliang used this as the general's mansion.
In history, no matter whether it is a king of one character or a king, it is not as good as a king of one character, and has the right and status to be with one character. However, in China, since the Liu Bang White Horse Alliance "non-King Liu" had a good ending for being a king of another surname.
At the same time, it was also a deep taboo in the dynasties, and later developed into a hidden rule.
A different surname will not be named a king!
-
Now, this taboo has finally been broken again.
To be serious, the title of Zhu Zilong's original body is also a word. That is dragon!
That is, the Dragon King!
The addition of the four seas before is just a kind of honorific title and a requirement under special circumstances. It is also a gift!
As for some people, they are worried that the title of Dragon King of the Four Seas will be too domineering. In addition, it seems that it is not good to share the name of Dragon King of the Four Seas in the myth, right?
If you think so, then filter it out.
The title of Dragon King of the Four Seas is even in mythology. In fact, China also used it relatively late!
In real Chinese history, the longest-lasting title of the dragon is.
The Dragon King is the Dragon God who manages the climate and storm of the ocean and the world under the order of Nuwa. The Dragon King is the ancient god. Qu Yuan [Chu Ci] [Nine Songs] describes it.
The Dragon King’s faith originated earlier and later spread throughout Middle Earth. Although the early Dragon God had divine nature such as rain, he had no responsibility to defend the land!
Later, there was even more Mazu culture, which was far beyond the myth of the Dragon King.
Since the Tang and Song dynasties, the emperor has issued several edicts to sacrificial dragons and conferred dragons as kings. It was only then that the saying of the Dragon King of the Four Seas began to begin!
In thousands of years of Chinese history, there have been precedents of the title of Dragon King (can be checked). Only the previous examples are the fact that Zhu Zilong’s original body is the Dragon King of the Four Seas is also a thing of the past.
Of course, this is actually one of Zhu Zilong's plans.
His luck in the human king has always been a dragon, but his cultivation level can be improved. He wants to try it out, how much can he improve, is it true or false.
-
For Zhu Zilong, the essence is actually more important. Just by appointing himself as the king of one character, he would naturally make the situation bigger.
Before the imperial edict arrived in Nanyang and Shandong, he waved his hand. The emperor's clone sent thousands of people from the imperial military salute team to send over the road.
In the history of the emperor, Dajia Luzhu is the highest-spec and largest car guard and car used by the emperor when traveling.
The instruments include: eight comb heads, twenty-four painting corners, eight neon eight, eight large copper corners, eight small copper corners, four gold corners, four rods and drums, twelve dragon head flutes, four clappers; two Sujing flags, two golden drum flags, two white ze flags, eight gate flags, one sun and moon flags, one wind and thunder flags, one five-star flags, etc., just like the red flag carts in later generations.
The jade car is also a car that is qualified to ride at the level of the prince.
And giving the original body is a newly created multi-era integrated product in recent years. (A modern person possesses an emperor, so he will do this.)
The traditional two-wheeled carriage in ancient times was changed to four-wheeled carriage!
There are gold-carved clouds hanging down, and three layers of gold-carved clouds are pasted around them. The curtains are made of three layers of red satin, each layer is embroidered with golden cloud dragon feather patterns. They are painted with golden cloud dragons and diamond bead curtains hanging on the door.
Each of the four wheels has eighteen spokes, decorated with pure gold carvings.
The body of the car is embroidered with the sun, moon, five stars, twenty-eight constellations, the four emperors, the five lakes, the water gods of the four seas. It is almost exactly the same as the emperor's car!
For a moment, the king passed by along the road.
All officials, the people, and the locals were all surprised and lost their minds. Even during the prosperous Tang Dynasty, how could Emperor Taizong respect the wise and the subordinates so respectfully. This is what Your Majesty is this?
Some people wonder, is it going to change this day?
Of course, more people, especially officials, were shocked. When they heard the sound of the wind, they thought in their hearts that this was actually the emperor who was trapped and lost to the Dragon King of the Four Seas in military terms, but they wanted to occupy the highest moral point.
Now that you are given a king, you should be treated with politeness. The son you gave birth to is also related to the royal family. If you make a fuss, it is a rebellion. Then everyone in the world will be punished. This is a matter of justice and status, which is more important than anything else.
It’s only a small matter. In terms of the Ming Dynasty, which values etiquette and law, most of the scholars and the people in the world will think so.
If you don’t want to be enemies of the whole world, you will inevitably accept this subtext promise.
Well, it was obviously just a very simple thing. After these people understood it, it became the emperor's conspiracy.
Of course, it may be considered a conspiracy in their hearts.
-
One month later, the imperial edict arrived at Zhu Mansion, Shandong.
There had been news here, and there were crowds of people watching. Zhu Zilong's body also returned from Nanyang early, officially put on the national duke's uniform, and led a team to travel thirty miles to welcome the angels.
At the same time, incense table offerings were placed on the streets. High coloring sheds were set up!
All the roads were cleared, and the personnel took a detour and left room for marching as the guard of honor of the imperial envoy.
On the way for more than ten miles, all of them were tied up in colored sheds, and red yarns were pasted on the sheds as a place for imperial envoys to stand. At the same time, there were a large number of gongs and drums teams to welcome them!
The eunuch who was sent to the imperial eunuch from afar saw a figure, heard the sound of gongs and drums, and countless men, women, young and old were crowded by the streets to watch the fun.
But I saw countless small flags flying, and the colorful flags were flying, and the gongs and drums were loud, and a festive and joyful scene.
The flag placards in the team who held "silent" and "avoided" were a little embarrassed. The situation in front of them was very different from the content of the signs they held. However, being warmly welcomed is better than being neglected.
Zhu Zilong's original body welcomes the etiquette and importance of enthroning the imperial edict, so that outsiders cannot find any fault.
The soldiers of the Zhu family who passed by were even more energetic. The bronze robe was shining, the arms were shining, the tight robe, the outer cover was short-sleeved cloak, and the sword was also worn around the waist. They were all elegant and heroic, and they looked like a stroke in the Han and Tang dynasties.
It's really an elite army!
