The Hall of Supreme Harmony was built in the eighteenth year of Ming Yongle (1420), at that time known as the Hall of Heaven. Jiajing Year 41 (1562) was renamed the Temple of the Emperor. Qing Shunzhi changed the Temple of Supreme Harmony in two years (1645). It has been burned and rebuilt many times since it was built.

The top of the hall is supported by a heavy eaves, and the bottom three steps are made of white jade. The steps are made of gold dragon and ginkgo, and the roof immortals walk with up to 11 beasts, and the highest forms are used in all 11 rooms. For the unquestionable First Hall of the World, the Taihe Palace plaque ”Jian Ji Lou”, the Emperor of the dryad.

The decorations of the Hall of Supreme Harmony were magnificent. Under the eaves to be dense, interior and exterior decorations to the highest level of painting and color painting. The upper part of the door and window is inlaid with rhombus pattern, and the lower part is carved with cloud dragon pattern. The interior of the hall was paved with gold bricks, hence the name of the throne room.

Inside the Supreme Harmony Hall, there were a total of seventy-two pillars supporting its full weight. All of them were giant pillars plastered with the picture of a Gold Cloud Dragon. It was an incomparably magnificent sight to behold. At the very top of the subjects' kneeling was the most precious first throne of the Forbidden City. It was set on a high platform at the center of the hall, on the seventh flight of steps. Behind it were seven large gold-painted screens with dragon carvings of the clouds.

A total of thirteen golden dragons twined around the throne, the largest of which had its head held high in the middle of the back seat; instead of its usual chair legs, it was a Sumeru base, at the waist of which were carved two dragons, painted in gold.

Around the throne, there was a symbol of peace with elephants, a symbol of the emperor, a symbol of the brilliant and wise water, a symbol of longevity of cranes, as well as incense burners, incense burners and incense burners. And the little child on the throne, who received the kowtows of all the officials, was the Sovereign King Tongzhi of the Great Qing, Love New Desire Luo. Zai Chun.

”Good boy, this entire treasure collection of Supreme Harmony Hall is even better looking than the future generations. Look at the golden bricks on the ground, not a single one is damaged, what fragrance is burning in the air?” Why does it smell so good? ”

Xiao Letian leaned on the entrance of the Supreme Harmony Hall and peeked his head in. In his previous life, he had come to the old palace a few times and had also seen how the Supreme Harmony Hall looked like a few times.

That year, Xiao Letian was also leaning on the door frame, looking at the pieces of golden bricks which had lost their luster and the spatial throne that was covered in dust, he couldn't help but sigh towards history.

But today, Xiao Letian had personally witnessed the true golden splendor of the Supreme Harmony Hall, and a myriad of feelings welled up in his heart.

”These are all great things left behind by the Old Ancestor, regardless of what dynasty or dynasty it belongs to, these are all condensed from the wealth of millions of people, created by the hardships of millions of craftsmen. Just based on this little bit of treasure, we have to protect our ancestors' small assets!”

Just as Xiao Letian was muttering to himself, Minister Hua Ruohan patted his shoulder and said, ”Stop daydreaming at the door, the great ceremony in the hall is over, we can go in now …”

It turned out that while Xiao Letian was still in a daze, he had already kowtowed nine times in the Supreme Harmony Hall. Hua Ruohan and the other envoys entered the hall and took off their hats and bowed, then walked one by one to the lowest corner of the door.

When he arrived at Xiao Letian's place, he became troubled. He stood in the great hall awkwardly, and felt the angry glares of the people around him. He did not know if he should bow, or kneel and kowtow.

Normally, the Ryukyu was also a Subordinate States of the Great Qing Dynasty, so when the officials of the Ryukyu see the Great Qing Emperor, they should kowtow, but from the moment Xiao Letian teleported to this world, he swore that he would not kowtow to anyone with authority, not even the Emperor.

”Insolent bastard, to not kneel at Supreme Harmony Hall, you disobedient subject!” ”My liege …” Xiao Letian's hesitant expression ignited the anger of the Qing Liu disciples. Han Lin Feng Fu was the first to jump out and scold them loudly, followed by countless of Qing Liu subjects scolding at the same time.

”Kneel!” If you dare not kneel to His Majesty … ”Where are the warriors? Hurry up and take down this madman …”

Qing Liu and Qing Liu scolded ferociously, but the imperial bodyguards would not listen to them. Furthermore, each and every new recruit was staring at them, so who would dare to make a move?

Qing Liu and the rest scolded, the officials were all discussing, the little emperor on the throne had never seen such a lively court meeting, he became childish and said to Xiao Letian, ”Hai …. They're all scolding you. Are you going to kneel or not? ”

”Your Majesty, you mustn't be rude …” Weng Tonghe said: ”You are a ruler of the nation, and also of the Grand Commission, you must be upright and respectful!” Tongzhi stuck his tongue out, not daring to say anything.

Xiao Letian shook his head: ”This subject's waist hasn't been well for the past two days, I'm afraid I won't be able to kneel down. Furthermore, Empress Dowager of the East has also granted this subject the privilege of not kneeling down and not letting him live, so I can't kneel down today …”

After saying that, Xiao Letian even raised his head and winked at the emperor and the empress dowager.

”Insolent maniac …” Who would dare to abolish the laws of their ancestors? This is the Supreme Harmony Hall, Grand Commission. Usually, they would tolerate you, but now, no one will tolerate you … Kneel down! ”

Xiao Letian turned his head and reached out with his middle finger towards Qing Liu who was cursing ”What's wrong with Supreme Harmony Hall? You think this is the center of the universe? Ancestral Family Law? Our ancestors had a lot of people, the Emperor Qin, Han Wu, Tang Zong and Song Zong, all those dynasties have their own ancestors, who do you think I should listen to? ”

Provoke, this was naked provocation! The loyal lackeys of the Da Qing Empire, all of them were filled with righteousness and anger, they almost wanted to eat Xiao Letian's flesh.

”Daqing obeys the orders of the heavens and rules over all of China. Daqing's family law is the heavens', you traitor …” ”You and I will never let each other go. Your majesty, please order us to kill these traitors …”

”F * ck, you don't even want to be separated!” Who is Han? ”Who's a thief …” Xiao Letian's harsh words scared the group of them so much that they broke out in a cold sweat, and only now did they realize that they had said the wrong thing.
