Chapter 103: Marquis

After sacrificing heaven and earth and worshipping ancestors, Xiao Yan felt that the bone shelf was about to disperse.

Xiao Yan finally knew the red tape. I imagined that there were many etiquette in the Song Dynasty, but what I didn't expect was that there were so many etiquette. Xiao Yan sighed in his heart: "I'm just a god son, as for it?"

Before he finished thinking about it, the official in charge of etiquette shouted, "The canonization ceremony has officially begun."

After listening to this, Xiao Yan almost fell to the ground, but his face was no longer ugly. He was tired for nothing else. Good guy has been tossing around all morning, and the relationship has just begun. At this time, when Xiao Yan had just eaten a fat meal and caught a cold, someone suddenly brought a basin of braised elbows and told him that the meal had just begun, and now he had a feeling of crying.

Is it easy for me? I still do it as a son.

With a tired body, he came to the Chongzheng Hall and stood there straight, waiting for the arrival of the emperor and the empress dowager. Xiao Yan slandered in the process of waiting: "They just fulfilled one or two procedures, and the rest were led by Xiao Yan by officials of the Ministry of Ceremonies. I was no longer a son. Grandson, I guess you are still drinking tea and chatting and waiting for me.

"The emperor arrived, the empress dowager arrived, and the ministers knelt down to welcome him." The servant's shout sounded, and Xiao Yan secretly glanced at the officials who followed him all morning. His face was not necessarily much better than him. Xiao Yan's heart was a little balanced. After all, this was for himself, and those people were all soy sauce, and their hearts must be more unjust.

As everyone got up, Zhao Gu and the Empress Dowager Longyou both sat on Danqi. Today, the Empress Dowager Longyou did not sit behind the curtain, but sat on the right side of Zhao Gu.

The hair is all white, and there are not many wrinkles on the face. Although she is not young, she can vaguely imagine from this face shape that she must be a beauty when she is young. When the eyes are close, you can see that she must be a heroine. This was the first time Xiao Yan saw Empress Dowager Longyou, so he looked twice and just as Longyou also looked at Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan had to smile, and the Empress Dowager also nodded to Xiao Yan with a smile, with a kind face.

"The canonization ceremony has officially begun." The chamberlain shouted.

At this time, an official of the Ministry of Ceremonies quickly stepped forward and read the edict that had already been prepared after saluted the empress dowager.

It's all ancient texts, and Xiao Yan couldn't listen to it. If he hadn't stood there, he would have fallen asleep. After hearing a few words that he could understand, Xiao Yan listened carefully.

Today, Xiao Yan, a native of Ezhou, is loyal and patriotic, with outstanding meritorious deeds, and was specially accepted as the adopted son of the queen. According to the laws of the imperial court, he was specially awarded the title of general of the auxiliary state and the Marquis of Zhenbei. Jiankang Zhenjiang Town Fu envoy and Jiankang Garrison Army are under the control, and the former commander-in-chief of the Jianghuai Road Rebel Army has been changed to Jiangbei Volunteer Army Envoy. Although Xiao Yan finally understood that he was now the Marquis of Zhenbei. As for the series of official positions behind Xiao Yan, he doesn't bother to listen. Anyway, he has to stay in Jiankang, so he doesn't have to listen to anything else.

"Marquis, marquis, wake up." Xiao Yan was playing chess with Zhou Gong. He was confused and heard someone shouting. He couldn't help opening his eyes. The figure in front of him became clear and he was the servant of the hotel.

"Marquis." Who are you calling? Xiao Yan hasn't fully woken up yet, and he didn't expect it to be himself for a moment.

Yesterday, after the ceremony, the emperor gave the banquet. Although everyone gave this set of red tape toss, the emperor gave the banquet to celebrate Xiao Yan's title of marquis. Seeing Xiao Yan's last person, who dared not give face? Besides, this opportunity may not be available in the future, so the banquet was also lively. Xiao Yan could have had a drink, but there were many people, and they were all important ministers of the court. In the end, he was dizzy and didn't know why.

"Marquis, in the morning, the emperor knew that the marquis drank a lot yesterday and deliberately changed it to the afternoon." The waiter had a flattering smile on his face.

"Marquis." Only then did Xiao Yan remember that he was already the Marquis of Jingbei. He suddenly woke up and asked, "What time is it now?"

"Go back to the marquis, it's almost noon. Grandpa Lan specially ordered someone to wake up the marquis.

"Oh!" I have slept for so long.

After Xiao Yan drank too much yesterday, he didn't know where it was.

Lying down ** and looking around. I didn't ask where it was. I got up by myself, cleaned up, ate something briefly, and was ready to enter the palace immediately.

Go out and look back. It is a welcome hotel, specially prepared for officials who enter Beijing and have no place to stay in the capital

"Marquis, marquis, please slow down." Just now, the waiter saw Xiao Yan stride out to welcome the guests and hurriedly shouted.

"What's the matter?" Xiao Yan slept and screamed, and he was in a good mood and asked pleasantly.

"Wait a minute, Marquis." The servant lowered his eyebrows and said, "Why don't you hurry up?"

With the voice, a sedan chair was carried out of the side door, which was carried by four people.

The waiter said guiltily, "The marquis will do it first. Your sedan chair will be ready in a few days. It will be carried by eight people. This has lost your identity. Please forgive me."

"Oh!" There is also a sedan chair. It can be said that Xiao Yan has never done it before. When he saw the sedan chair, he was really happy and couldn't help but want to try it. He really didn't think about the specifications of this sedan chair. After hearing this, he suddenly realized that he was already a marquis and should be a sedan chair.

"Interesting!" Xiao Yan muttered a few words, turned around and lifted the curtain of the sedan chair and sat in, "Hmm." It's really comfortable. Although the sedan chair is not big, it is well cleaned up inside. It is cushioned with purple satin and cotton. The sedan cloth is full of thick felt cloth. There is also a straw cylinder hanging on the edge of the sedan chair. When I opened it, it turned out that there was a tea kettle in it. Xiao Yan was very satisfied. Thinking about the style of those officials sitting in the sedan chair seen on TV in later generations, he reached out and patted on the sedan chair.

"Marquis, where are you going?" The sound of the sedan chair outside.

"Hey! This hand is available in the Song Dynasty. He said, "Go to the palace.

"At this time, he should at least be able to compare with BMW. Xiao Yan did nothing else along the way. With the uniform trembling of the sedan chair, he was full of reverie. I didn't know that the outsiders shouted that it had arrived, and I didn't feel that the sedan chair had already landed.

No matter how much you ride in a sedan chair, you can only go to Chaotianmen. The rest of the journey has to go by yourself. Xiao Yan is happy and doesn't care about so much, so he gets off the sedan chair and walks in.

In the past few days, Xiao Yan ordered Ma Rouji to take people back to the barracks outside the city. Unexpectedly, he didn't even leave his own soldiers. In the past few days, he has been dizzy. It was not until now that Xiao Yan found this problem, and this time there was no Yue Lin accompanying him, but Xiao Yan was at this time. I didn't care much, so I walked to the Chongzheng Hall.

"Marquis Xiao, Marquis Xiao." Someone is shouting Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan looked back and was stunned.
