In the first year of Jianwen, in mid-March, King Yan and his party arrived in Nanjing.
The prince's ceremonial guard entered from Xuanwu Gate, with the flag bearer in front, the prince's elephant and chariot in the middle, and the eunuchs and attendants accompanying the carriage. Five hundred guards were all dressed in bright clothes and angry horses. The sound of horse hooves was constant during the movement, and the people on the horses were solemn and awe-inspiring.
Flags, halberds and cloaks, Ge's cloaks, ceremonial cloaks, etc. passed by one after another, attracting exclamations from people on the roadside.
Although he has lived in the imperial city for a long time, since the Hongwu Dynasty, all the kings have been vassals, and they are not allowed to enter the capital unless they are ordered to do so. Such a majestic scene is really rare.
The Minister of Honglu Temple came out to welcome Zhu Di personally and led Zhu Di to stay at Prince Yan's Mansion in the city.
