The five hundred and thirteenth chapter dark fragrance Zide Hall (1)
The day of the title of honor came soon. Guo Shao led all the ministers to Zhizhao first, and then a group of people returned to the palace to see Fu Jinzhan.
As soon as he came out in front of the statue of God, Guo Shao still had traces of mysterious and solemnity in his heart, and a sentence echoed in his mind, "Man and the king rule the heaven" in the verdict that he could not understand. In this era, the change of dynasties was too fast before, and the mystery of the emperor had been greatly reduced, but the idea of heaven, earth, gods, and divine authority still exists. Not to mention that people at this time did not have any materialistic thoughts at all, even Guo Shao had a sense of intuition that he would rather believe in mysterious things than not believing in them... It was like an ordinary person who walked into a temple, even if he did not believe in God, he had an inexplicable sense of awe.
Even if he became an emperor, he would have a solemn heart when facing many spiritual positions of "spirits in heaven".
Today, Fu Jinzhan, who was named the emperor, was nominally the queen of the last emperor. Guo Shao had an indescribable feeling... He actually disliked the name like "Duanci" very much; but reason told him that this kind of name was more appropriate. The two words of the ancients were generally not words, but two separate words, which all meant to praise Fu Jinzhan, and there was nothing wrong with it.
Guo Shao rode in the imperial chariot and arrived at the Zide Hall in front and behind.
The chariot I was riding in the palace had a yellow roof on its head, and the other direction was open. There were a large group of palace servants and civil and military officials in front and behind. Among them were envoys of Wu Yue in Tokyo and the king of the destruction of Shu. The Zide Hall is the residence of the "Empress Duanci", and the ceremony of honoring the title must be held here, which belongs to the harem; foreign ministers rarely enter the harem area legally. Guo Shao has not been in as a military general for several years, but he can come in when he encounters such a grand ceremony.
In this kind of occasion, Guo Shao has always been the focus of everyone's attention, and he will have some sense of satisfaction and weakness. On the other hand, he is also more reserved. Celebrities must perform appropriately on stage. Therefore, as an emperor, Guo Shao feels that having acting skills... a person cannot be born with such a solemn face and behavior, but in order to match his identity, he pretends to be. Moreover, majesty will in turn affect his mentality, always be so upright and accept such a state of mind.
When they arrived outside the main gate of Zide Hall, countless palace ladies knelt down and kowtowed; the noble ladies who came from another palace, and their destiny gathered here. Guo Shao led everyone into the main hall.
The Zide Hall is also built on the base, located on the central axis of the imperial city. It is very empty around and has good lighting. The sunlight from the doors and windows everywhere shines in, making the carved wood and exquisite decorations on the main hall cover a layer of yellow light, which looks even more gorgeous and noble.
Fu Jinzhan sat on the couch in a wide yellow dress, graceful and dignified. Guo Shao approached, took a stack of memorials from the eunuch Yang Shiliang, presented them to Fu Jinzhan, bowed and said, "The emperor's sister-in-law is noble, she loves the soldiers, loves the people, has a dignified manner, and is deeply respected by the world. All the civil and military officials of the court have entered the title of honor, so please take a look at the emperor's sister-in-law."
Fu Jinzhan sat upright and said calmly and soothingly: "I am very relieved to the officials and the ministers."
When Guo Shao handed over the memorial, he saw Fu Jinzhan's face nearby. Her name is the widow of the late emperor, and she has also been the queen mother. Her title is "Empress Duanci" and her identity reminds people of the portraits of ghosts and gods in the Taimiao; but the people in front of her are very different, full of the beauty of life. The yellow brocade on the couch, her robes and jewelry are very bright and gorgeous, and the skin on her face is even white and beautiful. The sun shines on her smooth skin, as if there is a beautiful halo.
The gold and jade jewelry on the hair, jade ears, and neck are colorful, shining in the sun, making the white skin and red red lips look more beautiful.
Her plump forehead, round oval face, ink-like eyebrows and lively eyelashes, curved black and white almond eyes, like moonlight, clear water, and like spring breeze, filled with the breath of life. Guo Shao likes the edges of his temples, ears, white skin, and black and neat black hair, which contrasts with each other, making people feel very beautiful. With such a demeanor, where is there a little bit of the gloomy atmosphere in the temple? Every detail reveals the vitality of life.
Even though the robe is so wide and complicated, it is already April and the temperature is relatively high. She cannot wear thick clothes. The softness of silk cannot block the tempting outline of her body. The round and straight lines on her chest are full, but not stiff at all, and are soft and wonderful. When she was sitting, near the waist of the skirt, waist and hips were very beautiful... Guo Shao even smelled the clean and faint fragrance and couldn't help but feel admiring and close.
But in full view of everyone, even if others dare not look at this side, he dared not show any inappropriate performance. He could only avoid Fu Jinzhan's gaze and calm down.
Guo Shao then slowly took the treasure seal and gold book from the plate held by the eunuch and presented it to Fu Jinzhang.
After the ceremony of presenting the treasure seal, Guo Shao bowed and walked a few steps to the west. There was also a treasure on the west side of the superior position (at this time, in addition to the army, the position was respected in the east; although Guo Shao was the emperor and a peer of Fu Jinzhan, Fu Jinzhan was older than Guo Shao in terms of status, so he was respected). He turned around and took a look, Fu Ermei, who was standing in front of a group of women, walked up with a smile.
Although Fu Ermei has not yet been named the queen, she is Guo Shao's official wife, so she has a high status. She hugged her hands slightly in front of her belly and walked up slowly, with a well-behaved manner. Seeing this, Guo Shao thought that although the second sister usually likes to make trouble, she is from a noble family and is still very etiquette and very good at being able to show off. She is still during the "confinement period" and needs to recuperate, but more than ten days have passed after giving birth, so she doesn't have to lie on the bed all the time.
She walked to the couch on the west side, and Guo Shao couldn't help but help her gently and whispered: "Slow down."
The second sister's face turned slightly red and she sat down slowly.
Although the superiors were divided into different places, Guo Shao sat very close to Fu Jinzhan.
At this time, the sound of drums and music sounded. The palace, regardless of gender, performed three or nine bows, and congratulations to Queen Duanci. Then people wrote letters to congratulate each other according to their reputation. Amid the music, the atmosphere in the hall gradually became lively.
Guo Shao sat there calmly and accepted people's bowing and congratulations. He looked at Fu Jinzhan from the afterglow, as if he saw a fairy goddess in the sun, sitting there quietly with a smile like a spring breeze on his face... Guo Shao felt very helpful in his heart. He was willing to see Fu Jinzhan's smile and be happy to see her, but such a title is not enough. I hope that one day I can give more glory.
At this moment, Meng Chang brought Mrs. Huarui to congratulate him. Guo Shao looked down and saw that Meng Chang was fatter than before. At this time, he heard a gentle voice saying, "Xie Duanci, Your Majesty's Holy Grace."
Guo Shao looked slightly and saw the plump and beautiful white skin inside the collar. Mrs. Huarui was wearing a pan-collared silk skirt. Compared with the crispy and half-exposed style in the picture of the maids in the Tang Dynasty, the atmosphere at this time was much more restrained and implicit; the pan-collared clothes can usually be seen at most, but not at all. However, when Mrs. Huarui held her hands in front of her abdomen and knelt on the ground, she could see the spring light from her collar.
Guo Shao was immediately stimulated by the white neck and the dynamic and soft lines. He seemed to smell the unique fragrance emitted from the woman's skin, and his heart was beautiful; but when he thought of such a solemn occasion, it would really damage his majesty if he showed a lustful and evil manner. He then responded with expressionless face, and his face was already a little stiff.
He secretly calmed down and found that Fu Jinzhan and Ermei seemed to be paying attention to him quietly, and his heart became more and more nervous. He even felt that Meng Chang's face was a little strange, and he didn't know if it was his illusion.
The congratulations etiquette continued, but Guo Shao was a little distracted. He thought of Mrs. Huarui's seductive appearance from time to time, but reason told him that there was no need to do too much... After all, there were many women in the harem, and killing Meng Chang for a beauty, the impact was not very good.
As noon approached, Fu Jinzhan held a banquet in Zide Hall to entertain the ministers' and wives, and there were singing, dancing and music, and various programs to entertain them.
Men and women divided into two seats, and palace maids came up to dance in the music. Guo Shao got up and left his seat and went to "change clothes".
Going out from the back door of the main hall, there is a roundabout corridor. The eunuch and the palace maid took Guo Shao to find a convenient place. He sighed in it, adjusted his mentality, and thought that he could ask his wives and concubines to sleep at night. In such a grand ceremony, it would be better to keep his mind calm.
He came out of it, rushed back to the main hall to sit, and walked in front of him. Unexpectedly, just as he turned around the corner, a white shadow suddenly appeared nearby. He was almost hit by the warrior's instinctive reaction. He immediately raised his hands to protect the vital points and pushed forward. His palm touched a soft place...
"Ah!" A cry of tenderness turned out to be a woman. Her body was weak and weak. She was gently pushed to the ground and covered her chest with her hands. Guo Shao's face was immediately embarrassed, and the palace maid and eunuch who followed him were also stunned.
The eunuch Yang Shiliang was a relatively powerful eunuch in the palace, but he did not scold the woman who had hit the emperor. Guo Shao looked closely and found that it was a concubine of the late emperor beside Fu Jinzhan, whom he had seen.
Du fell to the ground, then quickly turned over and knelt down and said, "I accidentally bumped into Your Majesty, and I deserve to die!"
Guo Shao stepped forward and helped her up: "You didn't fall, are you?"
He didn't think much at this time, and didn't pay attention to pretending to help him. He just felt that she fell and helped her. Unexpectedly, as soon as his palm touched her forearm, he felt Du's body tremble obviously, and it was very strong as if he was electrocuted. When he looked at her again, his face turned red.
Du whispered: "I'm fine, thank you..."
