After making the decision to enshrine Mount Tai, Li Changqing informed the world through Wang Bao.

After hearing this, the common people and scholars all over the world rushed to tell each other and were overjoyed. Countless people called their friends and planned to go to the vicinity of Mount Tai in advance to occupy a place to witness the grand ceremony on the day of the ceremony.

Since ancient times, how many people have been lucky enough to see emperors consecrate themselves to Zen? What's more, it is still the title of the current Emperor Wu!

"His Majesty Emperor Wu is a wise king who is rarely seen in the ages! Deserve the honor of becoming a Zen master!"

"Your Majesty has created such unparalleled achievements that shocked the present, and created such a peaceful and prosperous era. The ceremony of enshrining Zen will surely shock people's hearts. Can anyone accompany me to Mount Tai to observe the ceremony?"

"Very good! That's what I meant!"

"good!"

……

The news of Mount Tai's enshrinement has caused an uproar among the people, which is understandable.

This matter is of great importance, and the Ministry of Rites can be said to be very worried about it. It is even more embarrassing than when it was held for Li Xiuning's enthronement ceremony.

There is no other reason, because what kind of sacrificial rituals should be used?

Although Fengchan has been the highest honor for emperors since ancient times, there is no fixed ceremony. The Fengchan ceremony for emperors of each dynasty and generation is different, and is closely related to the emperor's own achievements.

What kind of etiquette should be used due to Li Changqing's achievements?

Officials from the Ministry of Rites searched through the Zhou rites and all the books related to ancient rites, and after long discussions with the officials from the Qintian Prison, they finally finally confirmed that they planned to hold the Zen ceremony in accordance with the standards of worshiping God.

(Note: The God here does not refer to the Western God, but the Jade Emperor God, also known as the Jade Emperor.)

The issue of Zen is a top priority. The ancients worshiped ghosts and gods and believed in the theory of destiny, so a Zen ceremony is regarded by everyone Because it is closely related to the future of the country.

In order to prepare for the canonization, the Ministry of Household Affairs allocated countless funds, and finally a month later, a canonization ceremony was held in Taishan.

……

Tarzan.

It's still dark, but countless common people and scholars who came here after hearing the news have already stopped to watch, intending to witness today's grand Zen ceremony.

One hundred thousand Tang Dynasty cavalry stood solemnly at the foot of Mount Tai. Standing there, just such a boundless evil spirit made people feel frightened.

The cavalry of the Tang Dynasty are all elite, and the one hundred thousand cavalry who are qualified to escort this ceremony today are the best of the elite. They are all warriors who have fought hundreds of battles on the battlefield, and their evil aura is naturally astonishing.

At the foot of Mount Tai, Li Changqing had already bathed and burned incense. Today he was wearing a black dragon robe, exuding an indescribable solemnity and domineering air.

All the civil and military officials behind him were all formally dressed. Civil servants were holding jade jade, and military generals were holding jade ruyi, standing behind.

Behind them, there were hundreds of warriors carrying stone tablets and ceremony officials holding various sacrifices.

Li Changqing raised his head and glanced at the stone steps leading to the top of the mountain in front of him, and said in a deep voice:"Mountain climbing!"

Then he stepped on the mountain climbing stone steps and headed towards the top of the mountain.

The stone steps have long been cleaned to be spotless. Don't underestimate this mountain climbing. There is a lot of emphasis on it. It can't be too fast or too slow. It's best to arrive at the top of the mountain just before sunrise and start worshiping, which means purple. Anger comes from the east.

Mount Tai is the most majestic mountain in the world, with a total of 6,293 climbing stone steps. Li Changqing and others started climbing before dawn in order to reach the Jade Emperor Peak at sunrise.

Needless to say, Li Changqing's physical strength was not a big deal. Even after sitting on the throne, he still did not relax his martial arts practice. His body was as strong as ever, and climbing some stone steps was nothing.

The military attaches are all warriors who have fought on the battlefield, so naturally they will not feel so tired.

It was just a pain to the helpless civil servants that they were already out of breath before even walking a third of the 6,000 steps.

But no one gives up halfway. What an honor it is to participate in the Zen ceremony? How could they give up just because they are tired?

After climbing the mountain at the planned speed, Li Changqing led everyone to the top of Mount Tai after an hour.

At this time, the sun just broke through the sea of ​​clouds and revealed its face, blooming with thousands of rays of light.

Such a shocking scene stunned everyone accompanying him.

An altar has been prepared on the top of the Jade Emperor. After arriving at the top of the Jade Emperor, the ceremony officials in charge of the sacrifice began to get busy, killing three animals, five birds and six animals, and then placing them on the altar.

The five-colored earth placed inside the altar represents the country, the country, and the country; the three animals, five birds, and six animals represent the people's livelihood; and then the emperor lights sandalwood to represent the appeal to heaven.

After everything was ready, Li Changqing held sandalwood and threw it into the bronze cauldron. Then he took the sacrificial inscription prepared by the ceremony officer and slowly read it out to the sky and down to the earth.

Sandalwood curls up into the sky.

Li Changqing straightened his God's robe and crown, and solemnly said:"I am the Son of Heaven, and I am entrusted by Heaven to create a prosperous Tang Dynasty, so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment; to pacify the barbarians, so that there will no longer be chaos in the Central Plains; to enlighten the people's wisdom, and educate millions of people. ; Promote the system and establish the foundation of the Tang Dynasty for eternity; unify the world and make the world a royal land!"

"Today I enshrine the Zen in Mount Tai and erect a monument to inform the world. I have a clear conscience and deserve to be called an emperor through the ages!"

"I will protect the Tang Dynasty forever! Immortals and Buddhas are unstoppable, and ghosts and gods are unstoppable. This is what I declare to the heavens!"

Li Changqing's voice was sonorous. He no longer bowed, but straightened up and looked at the vast sea of ​​clouds with stern eyes. Wearing a black dragon robe and a sword on his waist, he had an indescribable sense of power and domineering! In ancient times, emperors granted Zen status to Mount Tai. The purpose is to convey the hearing of heaven, but Li Changqing directly declares it to the heavens in the name of the emperor!

The difference between them is simply different, which also shows how proud Li Changqing is! Hundreds of civil and military officials behind him took photos of Li Changqing's boundless imperial power, a Everyone was so fascinated that they fell down one after another and said with great respect:"Long live Emperor Wu!"

Li Changqing laughed it off and looked at the merit monument that was being erected by several warriors on one side. This monument was two meters high and actually had no words!

Only when this monument is truly planted can today's Zen ceremony be considered a complete success.

Li Changqing smiled faintly and looked at the sea of ​​clouds again.

I don't need to write down my achievements in words, because I can naturally make future generations never forget my achievements!
