Over the next ten days, Liu Qi was almost busy and did not touch the ground. He was in charge of the ceremony all day and had no time to think about other things. Although a prince, a military officer and a local official officially established a country and could not compare to the emperor's ascendance to the throne, he still underestimated the troubles of the entire ceremony. According to his original idea, he could not complete it in more than ten days, and could only lower the standards in unobtrusive places. Among them, those who had reported to Li Gong in advance were also asked to apologize.

‘Fortunately, I have memories of later generations. According to my experience in watching various large-scale events, as long as I have thousands of spirited and brightly dressed soldiers standing next to me neatly and solemnly, they will give people a sense of solemnity and will not appear too simple.’ He could only comfort himself in this way.

As for the entire process, Liu Qi repeatedly discussed with the officials of the royal palace and the generals and staff in the army who were proficient in etiquette, and finally came up with a ceremony that combines the abdication ceremony of the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the title of the crown prince in the Tang Dynasty, and the prince ceremony.

Liu Qi was not very satisfied with the final process, but everyone could not think of a better one in a short time. At that time, the chief of the royal palace complained: "If Wang Fu was here, he would definitely be able to come up with a smoother etiquette. It's a pity that he is old and did not come to Anxi with the palace."

Li Bixiao is also very busy. Not to mention that Liu Qi had asked her for help in half a joke in advance, even if she hadn't, how could she watch the husband be so busy and she had nothing to do all day? In the past ten days, except for accompanying Li Gong, the rest of her time was spent on preparing for the ceremony. In just a short period of time, she lost more than ten pounds.

Fortunately, the scheduled day came soon and the preparations for the couple finally ended.

It was the tenth day of July in a blink of an eye. The day before, the high platform for the ceremony had been built, the red carpet was laid, and the cars and cars were repainted, which looked very bright.

The moment before sunrise that day, the chief of the Prince's Mansion, Sima and other officials were dressed neatly and stood on the north side of the high platform, standing with their hands down; the envoys of the foreign countries such as Kangju stood on the south side of the high platform.

There were also three thousand carefully selected soldiers standing behind them and on the east and west sides of the platform. These soldiers were wearing brand new military uniforms, light armor on the outside, a spear in their right hand, and a knife on their waists, standing in place with a solemn expression. Influenced by these soldiers, everyone became much more serious involuntarily.

After everyone stood firm, drums and music sounded. Hearing the sound, Wang Fu, who was temporarily appointed by Liu Qi, barely opened his eyes, washed his face with cold water, came to King Feng, and began to lead him from a faraway place from the high platform, and escorted him by the guards.

Li Gong was also wearing an extremely grand dress. When he walked to the high platform, he paused, left the guards and walked up, and stood facing east. An elderly and virtuous civil servant in the army was standing on the east side of the high platform, with one person on each side, holding a book and a seal.

After Li Gong stood up properly, the civil servant and the people on both sides knelt down, picked up the book from the left and read it loudly: "I use it repeatedly, and I am not good at peace, and the destiny has not changed, and the number of the calendar is returned..."

"Gong received the order!" After the man finished reading, Li Gong also knelt down and bowed east three times and kowtowed nine times, and said loudly.

The civil servant stood up and sent the book to Li Gong. Li Gong took it and bowed eastward.

"There is a rule!" the civil servant shouted again, picked up the seal and ribbon from his right hand, and handed it to Li Gong for the second time. After Li Gong took it, he handed the seal and ribbon to Liu Qi together with the book, and then bowed again. Liu Qi also knelt down.

"There is a rule!" the civil servant shouted again, and Li Gong and Liu Qi bowed at the same time; at the same time, all the civil and military officials watching knelt down and bowed to the east.

The envoys of the Fan Kingdom suddenly became at a loss. They represented the kings of the Fan Kingdom, and the kings of the Fan Kingdom were theoretically on par with Li Gong. But theory is theory. The Fan Kingdom, where the envoys were present today, will actually become the vassal states of the Anxi vassal state. From this principle, they should kneel down. However, before coming, the monarch did not give any instructions on this situation, and they were worried that they would be blamed by the monarch after going back, so they hesitated.

While they were hesitating, the officials had finished bowing, and the civil servant shouted loudly again: "The ceremony was over!" Everyone had already stood up one after another. Seeing this, they no longer had to worry about it, thinking in their hearts: "If you don't kneel, you won't kneel. Anyway, it's not that I didn't kneel alone, even if King Feng was dissatisfied, it would not only target one country."

Thinking of this, they relaxed and prepared to disperse; according to past experience, the whole ceremony ended after hearing the word "Essay".

But today, the officials and soldiers of Anxi were not moving at all. Just now, the civil servants on the high platform and the two of him left and right walked down from both sides, and Li Gong and Liu Qi were still on top. Li Gong changed directions and knelt facing south. Liu Qi took out a yellow book and read it aloud.

This step is to establish a ancestral temple and a country. The ancestral temple is to worship ancestors, while the ancestral temple is the solstice and Ji altar. The solstice is used to worship the land gods, and the Ji altar is used to worship the gods of grains. According to traditional concepts, whoever masters the land and grain will master a country, so the country and the ancestral temple are a symbol of the country.

Anyone who establishes a nearly independent regime, whether it is a marquis, a principality, a kingdom, or even an empire, will immediately establish a ancestral temple and a country; if a country is to be destroyed, it will definitely destroy the ancestral temple and a country after entering its capital. In a sense, this is more important than the previous string of canonization etiquette.

However, Li Gong's independent place was in Kang State, so he would not be able to set up the capital here, so he could not build it immediately. Liu Qi could only read the document and told his ancestors and the two gods that he could not build the ancestral temple immediately due to the situation. He asked them to forgive him and he would order it to build it in the pre-determined capital of Kucha, the Anxi vassal state.

"This is too long." After listening for a while, Cao Fangfeng couldn't help but say to his brother.

"Shut up!" Cao Fanghao immediately scolded. It was such an important thing in front of everyone. If someone else saw it and then spread it to His Highness's ears, he would still want to have good fruits to eat in the future!

Hearing his brother scolding, Cao Fangfeng knew Meng Lang himself, and hurriedly retracted his head and looked at Gaotai again. Renault accidentally saw his appearance and almost laughed. He finally managed to hold it back. Other officials also saw the movements of the Cao brothers, but there was no reaction on the surface.

It took Liu Qi a long time to read the contents of the document, bowed to the south again, and then retreated behind Li Gong. Li Gong raised his head, said a few words to the heaven, and bowed three times and nine times.

"Respect the heaven and the ancestors, and ensure the country and the people." Liu Qi finally shouted loudly. As he finished speaking, Li Gong stood up and the whole ceremony was completely over.
Chapter completed!
