Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Ceremony of Worshiping Heaven
On the second day, the mighty guard of honor set off. The guards in front were holding the banner marked by the Holy Kingdom. Ling'er was sitting on the dragon, Mo Chou, Mo Yan and Yun Chu Yuntian were accompanying them, walking in the center of the team, and behind were
Following officials of different ranks, this honor guard was larger and more luxurious than the last one. People on the street came out to watch, and the scene was extremely lively.
In just one day, we arrived at the Yae Mountains in Muchuan. The Yae Mountains are eight extremely high mountains. Surrounded by them, there is a large valley in the mountain valley. The scenery here is very beautiful. The sun sets in the west and the twists and turns of the road...
Countless flowers of all kinds are blooming everywhere, and butterflies are flying all over the sky, making you feel like you are in a sea of flowers.
After the team walked for a while, a palace appeared in front of them. It looked magnificent from a distance, and the overall design was exquisite, showing the craftsmanship of the craftsmen.
The procession went all the way to the entrance of the palace. The entire palace was not as grand as the royal palace, but the sparrow was small and well-organized.
At night, Ling'er could finally rest. Although she had been sitting on the sedan chair all day, she still felt a little numb all over her body. It was really hard to be the king of the country. She felt that there were more rules than when she was the princess of Qi.
You have to be more cautious, for fear of being embarrassed or losing your sense of proportion.
Mochou stepped forward to help Ling'er, rubbed her shoulders, and said, "Tomorrow is the ceremony to worship the heaven. Is Ling'er nervous?"
She was not nervous, but she had a little fear in her heart. Tomorrow, she would see Beilingye tomorrow, and she didn't know if he would recognize her. If he recognized her, what should she do? Her heart was very complicated.
Ling'er softly ordered: "Ming ** and Mo Yan should stay away for the time being. If they are recognized by Beilingye, they will definitely know that I am here." Therefore, they cannot appear at the heaven-sacrifice ceremony tomorrow.
Although Mo Chou was disappointed and couldn't watch the fun, she also knew what to do and said, "Don't worry, Ling'er, I will avoid Mo Yan and wait until they are gone before coming out."
Ling'er nodded, got up, walked to the bed and lay down. Mochou arranged the quilt for her, put down the gauze curtain, and left. As soon as Mochou left, Ling'er opened her eyes. She was probably going to have a sleepless night.
When he closed his eyes, Beiling Ye's figure appeared in his mind.
His smile, his domineering, his anger, everything about him filled Ling'er's mind.
On this day, the Togakushi Mirror Terrace was extremely spectacular. Ministers from the Holy Kingdom and officials from all over the country came one after another. What was even more rare was that the orthodox royal families of the seven countries gathered together.
Everyone is waiting for it. Only when the leader of the Holy Kingdom ascends the throne will he worship the heaven. It is probably the first time for these orthodox royal families to see this kind of scene, and they all look very fresh.
At this time, someone shouted loudly: "The king has arrived!" and then the sound was heard.
The people who were originally gathered in front of the mirror immediately gave way to a way, and saw the dragon boat carried by twenty-six people walking slowly. On the dragon boat sat a woman in a white royal robe, covered with a veil, and her head was
The crown bead curtain swayed, and the whole face could not be seen, but just looking at those big clear eyes, one knew that this woman must be the most beautiful woman in the country.
Everyone immediately clasped their hands and bowed respectfully to salute. After all, the status of the leader of the Holy Kingdom is so noble.
Ling'er sat upright on Long Chu. When Long Chu passed by Beiling Ye, he felt that his heart was about to jump out of his chest. He clenched his fist tightly to calm himself. Long Chu continued to move forward until he reached the mirror.
He stopped in front of him, and one person immediately fell down on the ground. Yun Chu supported Ling'er and walked down Longhu.
Ling'er walked up to the mirror, turned around and looked down, saying: "All the ministers are at home." Everyone below thanked him and stood up.
At this time, a person next to him shouted loudly: "We'll arrive in time, the ceremony of worshiping the heaven will begin." Immediately afterwards, the horn sound sounded, and bursts of horn sounds resounded throughout the sky.
After the trumpet sounded, the priest said: "All the orthodox royal families, please come to the stage to worship heaven with me." Then the royal families of the seven countries stepped onto the stage.
Because the Emperor of Qi had no heirs, the State of Qi ordered envoys to bring his own blood, while the princes from other countries came. As for the Han State, Ling'er's guess was good, it was indeed Beiling Ye who came.
An attendant came forward and handed Ling'er a vessel engraved with ancient inscriptions, and asked everyone to come forward one by one to offer their blood. Qi was the first, followed by other countries. When the prince of Zhao approached, he looked up at Ling'er.
With one glance, he picked up the knife and scratched his hand, dripping his own blood, and then returned to his original position.
Beilingye waited until everyone had donated blood before he stepped forward, tilted his head, glanced at Ling'er, put on a mysterious smile, picked up a knife and scratched it, dripped blood, and used a low
An inaudible voice said: "You are like an old friend of mine." After hearing Beiling Ye's words, Ling'er was surprised at first, and then a little angry.
At this time, Beiling Ye probably didn't recognize her. After all, Ling'er could not speak before, but now the king can speak, and he was wearing a royal robe and a veil, so wasn't he just teasing other women with his words?
It's really hateful.
After everyone's blood had been dripped, the priest stepped forward and said: "Please let the king go to the rooftop."
Ling'er walked up to the rooftop holding the vessel, placed it on the sacrificial table, and then knelt down. Everyone on the stage and off the stage also knelt down. Ling'er clasped his hands together and began to pray for the people and all living beings.
I only heard the priest reciting some incomprehensible spells. At this time, a strange phenomenon appeared in the sky. It was originally a clear sky, but slowly the entire sky was covered by dark clouds. The horn sounded again, and golden light penetrated through it.
The clouds shone on Ling'er, and Ling'er was enveloped in golden light, as if an immortal had descended.
The priest was shocked and immediately knelt down and shouted: "The gods have come, but my lord is the daughter of the Emperor of Heaven. The Emperor of Heaven heard my Lord's loyal prayer and agreed." This vision in the sky has attracted many people who have participated in the ceremony of worshiping the heaven.
None of the ministers have ever seen it.
At this moment, they were even more convinced that Ling'er was the king chosen by the Emperor of Heaven. The daughters of the Emperor of Heaven in the world all said in unison: "Thank you to the Emperor of Heaven for your kindness, and thank you for my Lord's loyalty." The sounds echoed.
After a long time, the clouds and mist gradually dissipated, and the golden light that fell on Ling'er also dissipated. Yuntian stepped forward to help Ling'er up, followed by others, and said to the people below: "The ceremony is over, please get up."
The people below also got up one after another.
When Ling'er walked down the rooftop and faced everyone, Yuntian took a step forward and said loudly: "My Lord has given me a banquet, please move to Yaohua Palace." After saying that, he helped Ling'er walk down the mirror stage and get on the dragon.
expel.
A group of people headed to Yaohua Palace to receive a banquet from the Lord of the Holy Kingdom.
