As the New Year comes, everyone bows to each other, children bow to adults, and adults bow to each other. This is the Tang Dynasty. Finally, the nine years of Zhenguan have passed, and the ten years of the beautiful and grand Zhenguan have arrived.

It was about one o'clock in the morning after night.

Li Zhan looked at his wives... Maybe he was tired all day, so everyone fell asleep. Li Zhan got up gently and left his home in Dunhuafang.

At this time, outside the home, Ying Lao, Gao Hu and the people from Li Jingmen had arrived.

"Greetings to Your Highness..." Old Ying, Gao Hu and the people from Li Jingmen knelt down and shouted.

"Get up...is the carriage ready?"

"It's already done. Now the ceremonial guard of Your Highness outside is the ceremonial guard of the prince..." Old Ying stepped forward and supported Li Zhan's hand.

"Oh..." With a sigh, Li Zhan shook his head and said, "Whoever has the same ceremonial guard, why bother Chengqian...!"

"Your Highness, this is what the Crown Prince takes the initiative to ask, and he is also waiting for you in Taimiao...!"

Mr. Ying's words made Li Zhan smile warmly: "It seems that my younger brother still has mine in his heart."

"Of course..." Old Ying smiled.

As the two of them spoke, Li Zhan got on the carriage. At this time, outside Dunhuafang, the prince was waiting for the ceremony. Li Zhan was going to Taimiao to worship his ancestors with Li Shimin.

At the beginning, what Li Zhan was unwilling to go was just Li Shimin's strong request.

In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Taimiao of the Li family followed the "five temples" system of the Northern Zhou and Sui dynasties. In May of the first year of Wude, Li Yuan brought four relatives to the ancestral temples, including Emperor Yuan of Emperor Taizu Li Bing, Emperor Taizu Jing, Emperor Jing of Li Hu, Great-grandfather Li Tianxi, and Emperor Gaozu Li Xi, and only established the four-generation temples.

Of course, Li Yuan set up the four temples not because his ancestors were humble and unknown, but the five temple model of the "One Taizu and Four Queen Temple" in the Northern Dynasties. This five temple (actually four temples) model was not broken until the death of Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan.

In the ninth year of Zhenguan, the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan died. The counselor Zhu Zishe suggested that the establishment of seven temples be built, and the emperor of the Tang Dynasty was only established for four generations. What is the difference between it and the princes? It is too disastrous and it is difficult to reflect the emperor's supreme noble momentum; the Secretariat of the Secretariat Cen Wenben also suggested referring to the old examples of the Jin and Song dynasties to establish the Six-Party Temple.

The suggestions adopted by Li Shimin were added to the Taimiao, and Li Chong'er, the sixth-generation ancestor, Hongnongfu, was also worshipped into the Taimiao, and his father Li Yuan, also worshipped into the Taimiao. At this point, the Tang Dynasty temple changed from five temples (actually four temples) to seven temples (actually six temples).

The orders of the Taimiao are Li Chong'er, Lord Hongnong Prefecture, Li Xi, Duke Jian of Xuan, Li Tianxi, King Yi, Li Hu of Emperor Jing, Li Bing of Emperor Yuan, and Li Yuan of Emperor Gaozu.

................

Arriving at Taimiao, Li Zhan got off the carriage, Li Chengqian was waiting outside. When he saw Li Zhan, Li Chengqian brought Xiaodouzi, Du He, Zhao Jie, and Hou Guangliang bowed and said, "Greetings to Brother (Your Highness)"

Following Xiao Douzi slowly walked forward and took out a set of crown clothes in his hand... The crown clothes were worn by ancient emperors and ministers when attending sacrificial ceremonies, and were a kind of Qin and Han Dynasty clothes.

The emperor's crown clothing... The twelve chapters of the sun, moon, and stars in the pattern, the sun, and moon are arranged on both shoulders, and the stars are arranged on the back. From then on, "carrying the sun and moon on their shoulders and carrying the stars on their backs" has become the established style of crown clothing for emperors of all dynasties.

The crown garment is made of a mysterious top, a vermilion bottom, and is painted with sealed patterns on the top and bottom. In addition, there are knee-blocking, ribbon-woven ribbons, and red robes, forming a complete set of clothing.

In addition to the crown robes, there is also a crown crown. On the top of the crown, there is a rectangular crown plate with a round front and a square back. The crown plate has a "crown robes" hanging from front and back. The crown plate is an important symbol for distinguishing between high and low, depending on the quantity and material. Anyone wearing a crown must wear a crown robes.

Li Zhan looked at the crane... Li Zhan was stunned for a moment and asked, "What does this mean..."

Because this crown prince can carry this crown.

After Li Zhan finished speaking, Li Chengqian on the side knelt down and said, "Brother has been enduring for me. I also know that my position should be my brother, but my brother gave up this position because I am your younger brother. Although I cannot return the position to my elder brother, at least I will ask me to return the position to my elder brother at this time, so please do not refuse."

Li Zhan frowned slightly, then looked at Li Chengqian and said, "Brother Gan, why bother? We don't need this."

But Li Chengqian said firmly: "But I hope my elder brother can wear it, so that I can feel at ease..."

"You have to be at ease..." Li Zhan smiled and said, "Okay... I will give you peace of mind."

After saying that, Li Zhan said, "Dress me up, I will bring the crown prince's crown today...!"

After saying that, Li Zhan stretched out his hand... Xiaodouzi and Ying Lao immediately helped Li Zhan put on the crown suit... The twelve chapters of the crown suit... are sun, moon, stars, mountains, dragons, flower insects (two chapters of flowers and birds), Zong Yi (one tiger and one monkey), algae, fire, pink rice (two chapters of pink and rice), fu, fu, etc., commonly known as "twelve chapters", but in fact "sixteen chapters".

Chapter 12 has rich connotations: the sun, moon, and stars, which means it shines; the mountain, which means it is steady and calm; the dragon, which means it is magical and changing; the flower insect, which means it is beautiful, which means it is literary; the Zongyi, which means offering and filial piety; the algae, which means it is clean; the fire, which means it means it is bright; the flour rice, which means it means it is flour and rice, which means it is nourished; the fu, which means it is cut off and decisive; the fu, which means it is distinguished, observing, and going against evil and good.

Among them, there are twelve chapters of the emperor, the crown prince, and the crown prince.

The crown prince used a crown plaque different from the prince and the prince. The emperor gave the twelve crowns... the crown prince's nine crowns... Li Zhan brought the crown plaque with nine crowns and walked into the Taimiao in a nine-chapter crown garment.

At this time, there were already ministers in the Taimiao, Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, Ma Zhou, Changsun Wuji, Li Daozong, Li Jing, Cheng Yaojin, Niu Jinda, Qin Qiong, Hou Junji, Yuchi Gong, Li Mengchang, Du Junchuo, Gongsun Wuda, Liu Shili, Gu Duyanyun and Zheng Rentai.

These people have one common characteristic, that is, most of them follow Li Shimin’s Xuanwu family.

He can be said to be Li Shimin's most confidant civil servants and military generals.

Li Shimin called these people's Congress to Taimiao at night, which made these ministers a little unaware of what Li Shimin wanted to do, but what these people would never think of was that Li Shimin wanted to introduce his son to these people. This was the first time that Li Shimin officially revealed his son to his confidants.

Li Zhan slowly walked from a distance to Taimiao. Because it was dark, Li Zhan brought a nine-flag crown on his head... So after seeing Li Zhan, all these people knelt down first and shouted: "Greetings to His Royal Highness the Prince."

Li Zhan ignored these people and walked straight to Li Shimin who looked at him with a smile on his face. He came to Li Shimin. Li Zhan knelt down and shouted: "My son Li Zhan pays homage to his father..."

A word from the son Li Zhan surprised all the ministers who knelt down, and then all raised their heads.

Li Shimin smiled and held Li Zhan's hand, smiling at all his confidant ministers, "Come...Come...Come...Come...Come...Come and introduce my son to you.

This is my eldest son, Li Zhan, the first son of the Tang Dynasty."
