Chapter 158 Who Goes to Sacrifice Heaven

Ye Beilan looked at the coriander in the bowl, raised his head, and glanced at Yun Wanyue.

Seeing the joking look on Yun Wanyue's face, Ye Beilan felt that he had every reason to suspect that Yun Wanyue knew that she didn't like to eat coriander.

But how did Yun Wanyue know that he didn't like eating this?

Seeing Ye Beilan hesitate to move his chopsticks, Yun Wanyue chuckled and said, "My lord, what's wrong? Don't you like the food I gave you?"

Ye Beilan smiled, then picked up the coriander and put it into his mouth without changing his expression, and then said with a smile: "I will bear in mind the princess's love and care for me."

Ye Beilan was smiling at this time. Seeing this scene, Yun Wanyue felt that Ye Beilan was really scheming.

I can still laugh at this time, but I guess it’s because I’m worried.

When Bai Tang and Que Niang saw that Ye Beilan and Yun Wanyue were getting along so harmoniously, they didn't dare to say anything and just lowered their heads to eat.

After waiting to finish eating, the two people left in a hurry.

Yun Wanyue looked at Ye Beilan, who was still having tea with her after dinner, and frowned: "My lord, why don't you leave?"

Ye Beilan looked at Yun Wanyue's spacious and bright room, and then said: "Why, you don't welcome me?"

Yun Wanyue snorted softly: "The prince is still very self-aware."

Seeing that Yun Wanyue was so impatient to let her leave, Ye Beilan left in no hurry.

In the past, he always regarded Yun Wanyue as a savage beast and avoided her, simply because he felt that Yun Wanyue had some plot against him.

But now?

Ye Beilan no longer had this idea.

I feel very comfortable staying here at Yunwanyue.

Ye Beilan didn't know what was wrong with him. Anyway, looking at Yun Wanyue's somewhat arrogant and proud look, he just didn't want Yun Wanyue to be so proud.

Ye Beilan stayed here and refused to leave. Yun Wanyue couldn't really let people use violent means to drive him away.

Yun Wanyue picked up a plate of melon seeds and ate them beside her.

One by one, the melon seeds were eaten by Yun Wanyue, making a regular and crisp sound at the same time.

Ye Beilan frowned, as if he didn't like the sound.

After a while, Ye Beilan said: "When does the princess think this rain will stop?"

Yun Wanyue said: "Maybe it will never stop."

Speaking of this, Yun Wanyue laughed: "I'm afraid that I will wrong the prince and live in the utility room for a few more days."

It was windy and rainy outside, but Yun Wanyue's house was still very warm with a charcoal fire burning.

Ye Beilan glanced at Yun Wanyue: "Do you still have this charcoal fire?"

Yun Wanyue said neatly: "Yes."

"Send some to this king's house." Ye Beilan ordered.

He is not a delicate person, but he has suffered a lot of injuries this year. The old and new injuries are piled together, making Ye Beilan often feel uncomfortable, and naturally he does not want to catch the cold again.

Yun Wanyue said: "If the prince wants charcoal, then he should pay for it."

Ye Beilan frowned and looked at Yun Wanyue: "Do I also need to buy things from the palace?"

He was not a fussy person, but the content of Yun Wanyue's words made him disagree.

Yun Wanyue continued: "This is the charcoal fire I bought with my dowry money. It is not something from the palace. If the prince doesn't want people to gossip and make people think that the prince is a woman-eater, then he should give the money."

"It's not much. The prince will stay here for one day, and I'll just give you two hundred taels of silver for charcoal fire and food." Yun Wanyue said casually.

After Ye Beilan heard this, he couldn't bear it anymore: "Yun Wanyue, why don't you go grab the money?"

Yun Wanyue snorted lightly and continued: "If the prince dislikes the price, then find a way to go out and buy it."

Ye Beilan thought that he wouldn't be able to live here for long, so he said, "Okay, I promise you."

Ye Beilan looked at Yun Wanyue in front of him. He didn't expect that the daughter of Yun Mansion would be such a philistine, but... this is fine.

It is better for Yun Wanyue to make money openly in the palace than to do something secretly.

Since Yun Wanyue likes money so much, he can compensate Yun Wanyue more when he waits for Yun Wanyue to leave the palace.

This rain, just like what Yun Wanyue said, will never stop once it starts falling.

For the next three to five days, Ye Beilan could still bear it.

But after waiting for a week and the rain not stopping yet, Ye Beilan was already a little irritable.

It was also at this time that a decree came from the palace, asking Ye Beilan to enter the palace.

Ye Beilan ran straight to the palace without any hesitation.

This rain has caused so much damage to the royal palace, and the damage it has caused to ordinary families can be imagined.

The people are the foundation of the king.

If the people can no longer live and work in peace and contentment, then Ye Fengtian will not be able to sit comfortably on the throne. No wonder Ye Fengtian has become anxious at this time.

Ye Fengtian summoned the princes and ministers together.

Discuss how to deal with this sudden rainstorm.

Finally, someone came up with the idea of ​​letting His Majesty go to worship heaven.

This is also a common thing in all dynasties.

When faced with something beyond human control, even the emperor would have the idea of ​​praying to heaven.

However, it is very common to pray for rain during this severe drought, but it is rare to pray for it to stop when it rains so heavily.

Ye Fengtian originally wanted to go to worship heaven and earth by himself, but it rained heavily and the altar was on Huayun Mountain. The mountain was high and the road was far away. Of course, the courtiers did not agree with Ye Fengtian going in person.

"Your Majesty, you are the one who relies on your ministers and the people. If you encounter any danger, what will the court do in the middle of the night?" The prime minister was an old man with a white beard, and he was in tears at this time to dissuade him.

"This world is a lonely world, and the subjects are also lonely subjects. If I can't go away and the rain keeps falling, what should I do?" Ye Fengtian asked.

The Prime Minister hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, why not send someone to go on your behalf?"

After hearing this, King An over there immediately expressed his position: "Father, I, my son, are willing to go to heaven for my father."

This may seem like a chore, but to be honest, the danger is nothing more than wind, rain, and thunder. As long as you are careful, you can always avoid it.

but……

If anyone gets this job, the benefits will be great.

If the sacrifice to heaven is successful, it means that he has been recognized by heaven and will be the next emperor.

Even if it is of no use for a while, no one will blame it.

Moreover, according to the tradition of Daye, only His Majesty and the Prince are qualified to offer sacrifices to heaven and earth.

Ye Fengtian glanced at King An with a gentle look: "You have not let me down. Is there anyone else willing to sacrifice to heaven?"

Ye Jinchao thought for a moment, and then said: "My son is also willing to share my father's worries."

Prince An immediately laid his eyes on Ye Jinchao, with a bit of vigilance in his eyes. No wonder Ye Jinchao was always against him.

It seems that Ye Jinchao’s ambitions are not small!
