On the ninth day of the first lunar month, the sky was cloudless and clear.
The mighty Renwang Chariot came out of Chaoge and went straight to Xuanyuan Temple outside the city.
In the Chao Ge, everyone from the highest officials to the nobles were invited to come. Even Jiang Shang, who was in the field, received the invitation from the king to witness this prosperous time together.
Motorcades of all sizes, like a long queue, lined up to leave Chaoge.
Although the dignitaries of the human race have their own thoughts, they still actively participate in it. After all, as a human race, they must be correct in offering sacrifices to the human emperor.
The same is true for the three great princes, Dong Bohou, Nan Bohou and Bei Bohou. They now live in Chaoge for the whole winter. Fortunately, the king often gives rewards and they can live happily without missing Shu.
Now these three princes also went to pay homage to Emperor Xuanyuan along with the long line of carriages and horses, but their faces were gloomy and they looked reluctant.
The reason is that in their Bohou kingdom, they each have their own sacrifices to the Human Emperor, and now they are being pulled away by the Human King to worship, but they dare not object, for fear that they will follow in the footsteps of Xibohou and be imprisoned in Youli and suffer.
In the long queue, there was a Taoist priest riding a black-fronted tiger who stood out very conspicuously. This Taoist priest's thin face always showed malicious eyes. He looked around for something and finally found Jiang Shang's position.
Jump up.
The black-fronted tiger was a ferocious beast, and it immediately frightened the guard walking by. Fortunately, the guard was somewhat capable, and he drew his weapon directly, looking vigilant.
"Li Jing is quite capable, and the soldiers he trains are so brave, not bad!"
This person is not someone else, but Shen Gongbao, who has already paid homage to the royal palace.
"Fellow Daoist Shen, don't scare the soldiers!"
There was a civilian's donkey cart next to the guard, and on top of the donkey cart was Jiang Shang who was going to the field.
"Hehe, that's all!"
Shen Gongbao was not in a hurry, and pulled the black-fronted tiger close to him. It seemed that he smelled the scent of the beast. He pulled Jiang Shang's donkey and collapsed directly to the ground, looking like he was being slaughtered. He was obviously frightened.
The black-fronted tiger's eyes were full of sneers, and he didn't even have the desire to lean down and bite the donkey to death.
No matter how Jiang Shang pulled up the donkey, the stubborn donkey just wouldn't get up, looking like it was about to die.
"Haha, this donkey is also following others. Jiang Shang, I advise you to learn from it, otherwise you will be worse than this donkey in the future."
Shen Gongbao's ridicule made Jiang Shang slightly embarrassed. Jiang Shang jumped down, abandoned the donkey cart, and walked directly into the crowd.
Shen Gongbao glanced at Jiang Shang fiercely, then ran wildly, frightening the donkeys and horses around him to the point where they fell to the ground.
It was not until he was directly scolded by a tall and powerful general that the black-fronted tiger Shen Gongbao sat down stopped.
"Mr. Shen, don't disturb Wang Jia!"
Li Jing scolded Shen Gongbao in person, without giving any face to Shen Gongbao. Shen Gongbao laughed and then stopped.
"Pindao remembers General Li's order."
Li Jing bowed his hands as if he had seen him, and then rode away on the green horse.
"That Qing Cong is pretty good, a bit like a spiritual beast!"
Shen Gongbao couldn't help but praise the good horse, and then he became quiet and didn't say a word again along the way.
…
Su Daji sat on the king's carriage, curiously opened the curtain and looked at the scenery along the way, seeming to be in a very happy mood.
With her ankles naked and stepping on the soft cushions on the king's carriage, she looked very charming and seductive.
Di Xin was closing his eyes and concentrating. As the king's carriage swayed, waves of strange fragrance floated in. When Di Xin opened his eyes, he saw Su Daji's face right in front of him.
"Wave!"
Di Xin kissed her directly. Su Daji was caught off guard and was kissed directly. Su Daji was obviously shocked. She wanted to refuse but then ran away and went to see the scenery along the way.
Di Xin was in a good mood. In addition to wearing a black and white dragon-patterned crown, he also wore a crown of the King of Zhongxing on his head, and curly dragon-patterned breeches on his lower body. He had his hands folded on his abdomen, looking extremely majestic.
It's just that this kind of majesty is extremely uncomfortable, and because of the sway, I have to straighten my back and sit upright, which is quite uncomfortable to sit up.
Equally uncomfortable was Queen Jiang who was riding in the Feng Luan chariot behind her. She was wearing a concave phoenix crown hat with both ends turned up. The hairpins on her head were all of high quality. Many of them were carved from jade and looked quite luxurious.
What he wears is even more exquisite, with a splendid phoenix-patterned crown decorated with quadrilateral patterns, and the right lapel of his coat, which also symbolizes the Central Plains dynasty.
It can be said that whether it is pendants or clothing, it all shows the nobility of the king and queen of the generation. Not only the king and queen, but also the high officials and princes are also very particular about their clothes. This not only reflects the status, but also is based on ancient etiquette.
.
Finally, when it was close to Si hour, the mighty motorcade arrived at the main entrance of Xuanyuan Temple.
Su Daji was the general manager of the Xuanyuan Temple, so she got off the king's car and disappeared in a flash.
Perhaps due to the intersection of luck, the black bird, which symbolizes the human king, flies in the sky. The light of merit diffuses on the black bird, as if a layer of gold has been added to it.
A rainbow appeared in the clear sky, and a happy rain fell down, pouring on the faces of the tired humans, immediately restoring the fatigue caused by sitting in the carriage for a long time.
The majestic guards were lined up on both sides under the leadership of Li Jing. This is a good man, with a refreshing and brave appearance, a bright eye and full of strength.
The roads were covered with flowers that had been prepared early. When Di Xin stepped on them, the fragrance of the flowers, combined with the freshness, made him feel very comfortable.
At this time, the queen also came to Di Xin's side. The two looked at each other, held hands, and walked towards each other.
The sound of ritual music and bells is melodious and simple, touching people's hearts. This music is the most famous ancient music "Orchid". Emperor Xin's face was solemn, holding a jade gui that symbolized the king of human beings. Accompanied by the queen, he walked straight forward
OK.
Prime Minister Shang Rong, Yabi Gan, and General Huang Feihu were behind Di Xin, followed by Senior Doctor Mei Bo, Si Tiantai Grand Master Du Yuanxian, Senior Doctor Zhao Qi, Senior Doctor Yang Ren and other senior officials.
After that came the three princes, and then the middle-level officials, the lower-level officials, nobles and other court officials.
Pig heads, cow heads, sheep heads, horse heads, chicken heads, dog heads, the heads of six domestic animals, geese, quails, birds, pheasants, doves, pigeons, and owls. These are the famous seven birds and six animals used to sacrifice people.
Emperor.
Buckets of grain and ears of wheat were also listed on both sides, symbolizing the prosperity of the Yin Shang Dynasty.
When everything was ready, Emperor Xin put incense on his hands and bowed.
After that, Di Xin lit a blazing flame, symbolizing the prosperity of the human race and its never-ending decline.
At this time, auspicious clouds descended from the sky, and the sun's rays reflected on the glazed tiles of Xuanyuan Temple, shining a golden light.
The golden light was brilliant, and even the wild flowers on the roadside were emitting traces of spiritual energy, and the spiritual energy pouring out from the ground was like clouds and mist. All the ministers marveled, thinking that they were in a blessed land of cave heaven.
"What a strong aura of merit! Is this the power of the Human Emperor?"
Shen Gongbao on the side also stopped looking down at him. He could even feel the pressure brought by Human Emperor Xuanyuan. This was pressure that only a saint could exert.
"This Human Emperor is already infinitely close to a saint."
Jiang Shang also came to Shen Gongbao's side at this time, but unlike Shen Gongbao's strange monks, Jiang Shang did not feel any pressure in front of this aura of merit.
