Chapter 189: Zhengdan (1)

The hustle and bustle of New Year's Eve has not passed yet, and the dynasty is coming one after another.

Compared to the thirty years old, the Zhengdan Dynasty was more important to the Ming Empire. The congratulations from civil and military officials, the emperor's commendation for his ministers for a busy year, and the expectations for his subjects in the world for a new year. There are also envoys from various countries who took turns to meet.

The dynasty is not the New Year, it is better than the New Year. It is already the greatest celebration in the dynasty.

Dangdang!

As soon as the sky was filled with slight whiteness, the bells in the Forbidden City rang.

Zhu Yunxiu endured his sleepiness and lifted the curtains of the bed and sat up.

"I will serve Your Highness to change his clothes!" The turtle came forward silently and said what he repeated every day.

However, today's turtle dress is much more serious. Because he is the eunuch, the leader of the Eastern Palace, and now he is one of the only eunuchs in the Forbidden City, and is one of the eunuchs of grade.

He wore a new red robe with embroidered patches, a topper, official boots on his feet, and a purse was hung on him.

"Are you going on a blind date? You're so energetic!" Zhu Yunsheng smiled.

The turtlema laughed in a low voice, "It was Eunuch Park who said that today the emperor and His Highness go to Taimiao, and I will accompany me. Let me dress more decently, saying that my ancestors are in front of me, if I am shabby, I will lose my ancestors' face!"

This year's Zhengdan is different from previous years, not in Fengtian Hall, but in Taimiao.

The old man and Zhu Yunyu rode on the imperial chariot, the vassal kings rode horses, and all civil and military officials were walking. Not only were officials above the sixth rank in Beijing, they had to participate, but the envoys of various vassal states, such as Annan, Siam, Ryukyu, Chameng and other small countries, also went together.

"Your Highness, I will comb your hair!"

At this moment, more than a dozen palace servants came in with toiletries and whispered to Zhu Yunxiu. The turtle was holding an ivory comb and smiled.

This comb that combed Zhu Yunyu's hair will always be in his hands, and no one can take it away.

Zhu Yunxi nodded and sat in front of the mirror. Her long black hair was spread apart. The turtle was almost pious and careful, combed Zhu Yunxi's hair.

"The hair is too long and it should be cut!" Zhu Yunxi suddenly said jokingly.

He was joking, but the turtle was so scared that his hands trembled, and the comb fell directly to the ground.

"Damn it!"

"Get up, it's nothing!" Zhu Yunsheng smiled and said, "Old Wang, how many years have you combed Gu?"

"I don't remember it either!" The turtlema said in a low voice and continued to comb his hair, "Your Highness, I will comb your highness for the rest of my life!"

Suddenly, looking at his face in the mirror, Zhu Yunxiu became a little dazed.

On the day I first came to this world, the morning when Zhu Biao passed away, it was also the eunuch and the comb, slowly combing his long hair.

At that time, he set a goal in his heart to win the crown prince of the Eastern Palace. Now, he has everything. Even what he has obtained has far exceeded his expectations at the time.

The long hair was combed, wrapped around his head, and fixed it with a jade hairpin. Then the turtle commanded the palace servants and began to cleanse Zhu Yun's face and wash it.

At this moment, footsteps came from outside, "I'm going to see Your Highness!"

Zhu Yunxiu was wiping his face and put down his towel, "Old Pu is here, come in!"

Park Bushen is also a rare solemn outfit, and at the same time he is surrounded by several eunuchs in red robes. Each of them is holding a box in his hands.

"I'm kowtow to Your Highness!" Park Bucheng brought people in and saluted the eunuchs again respectfully.

"Okay, there is no need to be such a big gift for the New Year!" Zhu Yunxi smiled, "What's the matter when I come here to see Gu in the morning? Let's agree first, I don't have any red envelopes!"

"I am a humble person, how dare I ask for your red envelope!" Park Bucheng said with a smile.

"Oh!" Zhu Yunxiu said angrily, walked over and smiled, "You, after you have been with the emperor for the rest of your life, watching Gu grow from a baby to a man now. What a humble person? In Gu's heart, he has never regarded you as a humble person!"

"Your Highness's kindness, I will never repay it for my lifetime!" Park Bucheng suddenly became sad and kept looking at Zhu Yunxi's face. "The prince was also treating me like this back then!"

As he said that, he quickly lowered his head, eliminated the sentimental feeling in his heart, and smiled, "Your Highness, I will give you a dress!"

"Dress?" Zhu Yunxiu was puzzled, "What kind of dress? Today's ceremonial meeting, don't you wear a robe suit? I've already had it!"

"The emperor said, what old one is, I have asked the servants of Shangyijian to prepare new ones for you!" The ticket failed and said with a smile, "The emperor also said that the robe was worn during worship. In the dynasty, you want to wear dragon robe, and let the servants prepare new ones for you!"

As he said that, he waved his hand slightly and asked the eunuchs who followed him to open the box.

When Zhu Yunxiu saw it, he was stunned on the spot and couldn't speak.

The robe of the crown prince and the emperor's robe are essentially different in the ritual system. The old man's robe has many heralds on it, but he cannot use it at all. But now this new robe is actually no different from the one worn by the old man during the ceremony.

What was even more shocked and frightened was that in a box, there were twelve tassels that only the emperor could wear.

Seeing that Zhu Yun-ho couldn't speak, Park Bu-sung continued, "Your Highness, in addition to the robe, there is also a dragon robe!"

As he finished speaking, a dragon robe embroidered with gold thread unfolded in front of Zhu Yunxiu.

The dragon robe was covered with complex and precious gold threads, and the skirt was embroidered with ten thousand characters. Just as the one with a fierce look, the lifelike five-clawed golden dragon was in his eyes.

Zhu Yun'er usually wears the five-clawed golden dragon robe. But it will not be embroidered with the pattern of sun, moon and stars like this one.

This dragon robe can only be worn by the emperor.

"The Emperor said that you will prepare for you sooner or later, so let me hurry up sooner or later!" Park Bucheng whispered, "Your Highness, the Emperor also said, change your robes and go to Yong'an Palace to see him!!"

"I understand!" Zhu Yunxiu whispered.

He seemed to have guessed something in his heart, and there was a little uncertainty. It was not that he was unsure, but that he himself did not want to and could not believe it.

~~~~

In Yong'an Palace, the old man looked at himself in the mirror and touched his gray hair and beard with some displeasure.

"I've been suffering from the swelling of my mother, and I'll be able to become a virtuous person at once!" As he said that, he sighed slightly, "Since ancient times, heroes are like beauty, and we are not allowed to see white hair on earth!"

As he said that, he suddenly grinned and smiled, "Damn, the words spoken by the scholar who suffered from plague are a little pretentious, but that's true!"

At this time, Park Bushen came in from outside, "Prince, I've sent it to Your Highness!"

"What do we say about our good grandson?" the old man smiled.

"Your Highness has been stunned several times!" Park Bushen replied.

"Ha!" the old man laughed, "Silly boy, he should be secretly happy in a while!" As he said that, he looked at his face in the mirror again, "Old Pu, come and change our clothes! Wear it carefully!"
