Chapter 537: Dragon and Phoenix Robe
Time quickly came to April 18th, which was the day Murong Li succeeded to the throne.
Murong Li and his companion stayed in the palace last night. Early in the morning, people from the Ministry of Rites delivered their clothes, a dragon robe and a phoenix robe.
Today, the emperor lent the Ninth Eunuch to Murong Li. The Ninth Eunuch is an old man in the palace and personally participated in the emperor's coronation ceremony that year. He is quite familiar with this aspect.
He can guide Murong Li and the other two, and is much more concerned than the people in the Ministry of Rites and the royal family.
The Ninth Eunuch carefully examined the dragon robe, and Nanny Wan examined the phoenix robe. Nanny Wan was the managing nanny of the Clothing Bureau, and the Ninth Eunuch called her over.
After a very careful inspection, the two found that there was nothing wrong with the clothes.
It is April now, summer, and the robes of both of them are made of satin, which is a thin material. If something goes wrong during the ceremony, it will not be as simple as making a fool of oneself.
That's because Murong Li lacks the ability. If he can't even handle such a small matter, how can he manage Xifeng Kingdom in the future?
The Ninth Eunuch and Nanny Wan personally delivered the clothes to Murong Li and his partner's bedroom, preparing to dress them themselves.
Murong Li only took one look at the clothes that symbolized imperial power and asked the Ninth Eunuch to change them for him.
The dragon robe is bright yellow in color. The silk and silk threads used are all high-quality materials. It is carefully embroidered, with exquisite craftsmanship and ultimate texture.
The dragon robe is embroidered with a soaring five-clawed golden dragon, which is embroidered vividly.
Murong Li reached out and touched the golden dragon. In the past, when they saw the emperor wearing it, they could only look up at him.
Although he is not very rare, he does look majestic.
Now he can wear it.
This dragon robe feels cool when worn, making people feel warm, which is amazing.
Murong Li knew that this was satin made of ice silk from the north, which was very rare. Only a few pieces could be obtained every ten years. It was probably used to make dragon robes and phoenix robes for the two of them.
As for Su Yue, she had never worn clothes made of such high-end brocade. It was not that there was no such thing in the space, but she could not wear it because it would be exposed if she tried on it.
But she can wear it later.
Su Yue touched the bright red phoenix robe that felt smooth and cool. The embroidery was worthy of being from the most prestigious embroidery studio in the country. The stitches were comparable to those made by a sewing machine.
There are colorful phoenixes embroidered on the front and back. The pattern is embroidered with colorful gold threads. The two big phoenixes are lifelike. The embroidery skills are amazing.
There are seven small lifelike phoenixes around the two big phoenixes. Their wings are spread, their mouths are open, their eyes are bright, and they look like they are waiting.
Su Yue smiled. Isn't this just like a phoenix seeking a brothel?
The phoenix is male and the huang is female, implying that the emperor and the empress are a perfect couple made in heaven.
The metaphor is beautiful, but in the royal family, the emperor and empress are the most estranged couple.
However, except for her and Murong Li.
She quite liked this metaphor.
The phoenix robe is also embroidered with exquisite cloud patterns, auspicious clouds and other decorative patterns, which increase the beauty and uniqueness of the phoenix robe.
The cuffs are also very exquisite, embroidered with intricate patterns in gold thread, which is beautiful and elegant.
As soon as Su Yue put on the phoenix robe, she looked extremely elegant and noble, making people surrender to her.
"Your Majesty, this phoenix robe is practically tailor-made for you. It's so beautiful and so luxurious."
Nanny Wan couldn't help but admire. She had handled many dragon robes and phoenix robes, but she had never seen the way Su Yue and the other girl looked so natural when they put on them today, as if they were born to be emperor and empress.
Su Yue looked at herself in the mirror, who looked a bit majestic, noble, and otherworldly. She was a little dazed. Just as Nanny Wan said, this phoenix robe was tailor-made for them, as if they were born to wear this robe.
She nodded gently: "Well, please put the phoenix crown on me."
From today on, she claims that she has to change herself.
"Yes, my lady."
Nanny Wan carefully put the phoenix crown and bridal veil on Su Yue.
This phoenix crown is made of pure gold, without the kingfisher feathers. It only has a pure gold phoenix on the front, with tassels hanging on it. It is exquisite and light, and will not break your neck.
This was done according to her wishes.
When Su Yue put on the phoenix crown, she looked even more noble and unattainable.
Nanny Wan unconsciously stepped back a few steps, bowed her head and waited, looking as if she didn't dare to breathe.
The aura emanating from Su Yue was too overwhelming.
Murong Li was also dressed. He wore a purple gold crown, a bright yellow dragon robe, and boots with the dark pattern of the Ming Emperor.
With his hands behind his back, the superior's majesty was even greater than Su Yue's.
The Ninth Eunuch secretly admired that this was a real emperor, majestic without being angry, and stern without being intimidating.
Just standing in the court, those treacherous ministers would dare to fart and be as obedient as quails.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."
Ninth Eunuch knelt down and kowtowed with a smile.
Murong Li glared at him and said, "There's still some time before the ceremony begins. Go check on your father."
His safety must be guaranteed so that it will be auspicious for him to succeed to the throne today.
Today he handed An Yizhi to the emperor, and two hundred secret guards protected him.
They also sent 500 secret guards to protect them.
There are 10,000 personal guards in the palace, as well as 10,000 elite soldiers, ensuring that not even a fly can fly in.
But some rats will still come from underground, so you need to take adequate precautions.
"Okay, then I'll go over first."
The Ninth Eunuch was indeed worried about the Emperor, so he hurried over.
"Madam Wan, you guys go down too."
Su Yue also asked Nanny Wan and the palace maids and eunuchs to leave.
"Yes, servants, take your leave."
The palace maids, eunuchs and maids had been busy since midnight and now it was time to take a break. They hurried downstairs to get some rest. There was still half an hour before the ceremony, so they could still take a nap.
Only Murong Li, Su Yue, Hongye Hongyu and Yueying were left in the bedroom. Murong Li asked them to go into the space to eat something and rest.
I don’t know when I’ll be able to eat once things start.
Su Yue: "You guys go in, I'll watch outside."
Her mental strength is indispensable outside.
Murong Li patted her and said, "It's okay. Those rats wouldn't dare come here even if they wanted to attack."
This is the East Palace, which is heavily guarded. Those rats can't cause any trouble for them.
The best place to get started is the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
The Hall of Supreme Harmony was the place where grand ceremonies were held, such as the emperor's enthronement, his wedding, the empress's appointment, and the ordering of generals to go to war. In addition, during the three major festivals of Spring Festival, Lantern Festival, and Beginning of Autumn every year, the emperor accepted congratulations from civil and military officials here and also held banquets here.
It's crowded and noisy there, making it the easiest place to blend in.
"Okay."
Su Yue nodded. With the secret guards on guard, she believed that there would not be any major chaos.
So she led everyone into the space.
In Taigan Palace, before the Ninth Eunuch arrived, he saw a figure swaying on the roof of Taigan Palace and heard the sound of ping-pong.
The Ninth Eunuch slapped his thigh and said, "Oh my! Why did they start fighting? My Emperor, I am too late."
