Emperor Yuanjing was the first to bear the brunt. He fell to the ground in the strong fluctuation of Qi. The high platform vibrated violently, and the memorial tablets of various ancestors fell one after another.

Sacrificial offerings and sacrificial utensils were scattered on the ground, and some of the splashing tiles fell on yuanjingdi.

The scene was in chaos, and the surrounding patrol forces quickly gathered up the camp and rushed to Sangpo.

Watchmen on the lake rushed to the sacrificial procession to protect the royal family and the civil and military officials.

"There are assassins. Protect your majesty."

"Protect the queen, protect the princess..."

"protect the first assistant..."

the shadow flickered, ten masters of the golden gong, the five guards of the imperial guards, and the masters of the imperial clan in the watchman's Yamen. In a moment, at least dozens of high-ranking martial artists rose up in the air, settled down on the high platform and the winding corridor, and protected emperor Jingdi.

The commotion lasted only a little more than ten breath, because the sword Qi that broke the sky dissipated quickly, and the lake was calm again.

There were no assassins. As the storm subsided, everything was stable. There were no casualties or suspicious people.

Wei Yuan is the leader in charge of sacrificial security work. Along the winding water corridor, he strode up the high platform and bowed himself to bow:

"if I neglect my duty, I will die."

At this time, Emperor Jing of Yuan Dynasty had recovered his composure, but after this, his indifferent immortal spirit had completely disappeared from his eyebrows.

He is no longer a Taoist who has been practicing Taoism for more than 20 years, but a powerful and unfathomable emperor.

Emperor yuan Jingdi said in a deep voice, "all people should withdraw from the altar and stay away from it."

Including Wei Yuan, many high-ranking military practitioners got up to answer the promise.

Emperor Yuanjing straightened his clothes, dusted off his clothes, and with a serious look, he opened the door of the temple and entered it.

...

by the willow tree, Xu Qi'an, who roared, did not hear the strange cry for help any more. With the passage of time, his spirit was stable, and his brain still had the pain after trauma, but it was no longer as unbearable as before.

At this time, he has the energy to observe the situation around.

His colleagues had already left to protect the civil and military officials, the royal family and the imperial clan.

There was no one over the high platform, but the winding corridor was full of high-quality warriors, led by Wei Yuan.

Yuanjingdi is missing.

What surprised Xu Qi'an most was that the roof beam of the temple where the sword was worshipped broke and a big hole appeared.

There's something wrong with ancestor worship. Is Sangbo's Secret reappeared?

Xu Qi'an thought flashed quickly in his heart, pressing his swollen head and converging to the army.

Because of his identity as a watchman, he was not stopped.

"What's the matter with you?" Song Tingfeng examined his new colleagues: "how is your health?"

Song Tingfeng did not connect the abnormality of Sangpo lake with the abnormality before Xu Qian.

It's like you don't associate the roar of a weak chicken with a magnitude 10 earthquake.

"I've been practicing too hard these days, and I've been bitten by it." Xu Qi'an found a reasonable explanation, and then said: "fortunately, it has slowed down. By the way, what happened just now?"

"I don't know." Song Tingfeng shakes his head and looks around him, taking a defensive posture. He whispers:

"the mountain and River Temple of Yongzhen suddenly exploded, and a sword burst out of the temple, which made the whole Sangbo boiling like an earthquake. But looking at the current situation, it doesn't seem to be an assassin. "

Xu Qi'an looked at the high platform again. Was the hole in the top of the temple pierced by sword Qi? The magic sword has this power. The one who asked me for help just now must not be the existence of the sword spirit.

He looked down for a moment, restrained all his emotions and settled all his thoughts. Then he hurried to the princess Chang and said, "is Princess Chang OK?"

The scene has been restored to order, although there are whispers everywhere, but generally very quiet, waiting for the emperor to come out.

Xu Qi'an's voice attracted many people around her, including the watchmen, her colleagues, the imperial guards, the eunuch, the eldest princess and the royal family around her.

The long princess's eyebrows are gorgeous, but her expression is as cold as frost and snow. She tilted her head. Xu Qi'an's figure was reflected in her eyes like autumn water. Her voice was cold and crisp with jade collision:

"all right

Xu Qi'an was relieved: "I feel relieved at my humble duty."

As soon as he saw what was good, he stopped. After brushing a wave of sense of existence, he immediately backed away and carefully guarded for four weeks.

"Huaiqing, this little Gong admires you very much." A soft voice rang out. It was the second princess behind the princess.

Huaiqing is the title of Princess Chang, but she prefers outsiders to call her Princess Chang.

Emperor yuan Jingdi once commented on the eldest daughter. She was not inferior to the man in her competitive heart and to me in her hegemony.

The second princess is very beautiful. Her round face is dotted with a pair of bright peach blossom eyes. Her red lips are bright and her smile always shows her amorous charm.

And the princess is the opposite of the two beauties. The relationship between the sisters has never been good.Long Princess light way: "admiration is not up to talk about, Zhi en Tu Bao just."

Xu Qi'an's foreshadowing in the sky warden, as well as his attitude just now, succeeded in setting up the image of "gratitude to the eldest princess".

The second princess closed her mouth and chuckled, "sister Huaiqing's charm is well known in the capital. The students of Yunlu academy are infatuated with you, and the scholars are still so, let alone the watchmen."

The other princes and princesses enjoyed eating melons and watching, but did not comment on the words of the second princess.

"Lin'an!"

The prince of Donggong frowned and scolded, "be quiet."

Lin'an is the title of the second princess. In the face of the elder brother's scolding, she curled her lips and stood up with her head down in a dignified and elegant manner.

The royal family knew that the eldest princess was not compatible with the second princess.

The first princess was born by the queen, and the second princess was born by Princess Chen. But concubines are more favored than queens.

When she was young, the second princess liked to challenge the eldest princess and find fault everywhere.

This is the most common Tianjia Gouxin, however, the eldest princess is a domineering and independent, she asked the attendant to capture the second princess, the attendant did not dare, so he himself, carrying a roll of bamboo slips, chasing the second princess to fight.

From south to north, from north to south.

The servant girls and bodyguards in the palace did not dare to stop them. At last, they startled the emperor of Yuan Jing who was Xiuxian.

Chen Guifei and her bruised daughter accuse the eldest princess. Yuanjing emperor plans to punish the eldest princess severely and ask her to go to the imperial study.

The eldest princess had already prepared to take more than ten sets of books, such as the book of rites, the general code and the palace law, to the imperial study one by one, quoting classic sentences and expressing feelings.

In the end, he won the lawsuit. The depressed emperor of Yuan Jing acquitted Princess Chang and went back to cultivate immortals.

When she became an adult, the eldest princess was much more restrained.

...

Yongzhen mountain and River Temple.

The majestic man in the yellow robe and the crown stands on the sword, and the temple door is closed. Standing in front of the founder's Dharma prime minister, Yuanjing emperor silently stares at the dusty copper sword.

"What about Yipin? You, who should have lived a long life, have not been tired by human fortune and lived a few more years than ordinary people? " Yuanjing emperor seems to be talking to himself, or talking to his 600 year old ancestor:

"I ascended the throne at the age of 20 and defeated all the enemies. Sitting in that position, no one can stand beside me any more, but finally I found out that the biggest enemy is time."

Yuan Jingdi slowly looked away and looked down at the ground under his feet for a long time. Then, he began to check the furnishings of the temple, and even went up to the altar to irreverently touch the ancestor FA Xiang and the brass sword.

This process was meticulous and long. At last, Emperor Jing of Yuan Dynasty breathed a sigh of relief.

With a relaxed expression, he knelt on the futon, made three bows and nine kowtows to the founding emperor, and then left the mountain and River Temple of Yongzhen.

Standing on a high platform overlooking the civil and military officials and the royal family, Emperor Yuanjing's voice was like a bell in the morning and a drum in the evening: "ancestor worship ceremony continues."

He didn't explain the reason for the anomaly.

The five guards of the imperial guards and the watchmen dispersed again, orderly restored order and inspected the surrounding areas.

Rows of eunuchs scurried down to clean up the broken tiles on the high platform, sort the sacrificial offerings, and the memorial tablets of the Royal ancestors.

Xu Qi'an returned to the guard position, muttering in his heart, it's very strange. It's reasonable to say that this kind of thing happened in ancestor worship, it's a big chest... Bah, it's a terrible omen. Emperor Jing of the Yuan Dynasty should be furious.

But he seems to be psychologically prepared for this. He doesn't denounce Duke Wei and the commanding officers of the Imperial Guard. Well, it's not necessarily psychologically prepared, but he knows the real source of the change.

Then, it's something you can't talk about in public.

Sure enough, there is a secret hidden in Sampo lake.
