In the backlog of anger and attention, the ceremony quietly came.

Originally, this kind of big day to celebrate with the heaven and the people should be held grandly!

As early as a month ago, the officials in charge of this aspect were ready.

But when it came to offering sacrifices to heaven, the emperor cut off most of the red tape and made the ceremony as simple as possible. It was better to keep it low-key so that he could be more relaxed.

Under the emperor's instruction, the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven became very simple.

However crude it was, it was also carried out in public. People who wanted to see the emperor and Xie Linlang gathered around the altar on the Bank of Longcheng River early in the morning, waiting for the ceremony to begin!

The reason why there will be a sacrifice to heaven today is that more than ten years ago, the capital suffered a drought rarely seen in a hundred years!

At that time, all the water was dried up, and the emperor prayed for rain for many times. He could only watch the common people die of thirst one after another, helpless.

When many nobles decided to move out of the capital, one night, there was a sudden thunderclap. The next day, a big crack broke out in the dried up river bed of Longcheng river!

There is a steady stream of water coming out of it, and there are many big and fat fish jumping!

Because of the sudden flood of the river, the capital survived the drought.

After that, the emperor thought that it must be the heaven's mercy and the ancestor's manifestation, so he set that day as the day of offering sacrifices to heaven, and kept this ritual custom to this day.

He also built a special sacrificial platform on the Bank of Longcheng River to show his importance!

The altar is round, with white marble steps at the bottom.

Behind the altar, there is a semicircular high stone screen. Most people don't know what the effect is. But those who have participated in the sacrificial ceremony before know that as long as they stand in the middle of the altar and speak, people below can hear clearly.

Therefore, many people regard the altar as a holy place. In general, even if no one is guarding it, no one dares to go up.

At noon, a ray of sunlight runs through the center of the city.

After noon, it is the time to sacrifice to heaven. The reason why we set the time at that point is that the gushing water of Longcheng River happened at that time.

The emperor and others must rush in advance to accept the worship of the people.

This made the emperor a little nervous because he heard that the Shen family was set on fire twice last night. It can be seen that the situation outside has become tense.

We should know that the emperor's teacher has great prestige among the people, and the common people don't fight against the scholars. Under such a clear class situation, they can force the common people to set fire to the extreme!

The emperor did not deliberately inquire about the situation outside the palace, but Xie Linlang knew it clearly. It was Princess Liu huifei who sent people to tell her.

At present, those students who have lost their future and have nowhere to go have become the backbone of resistance against the emperor. How much they respected the emperor before, how much they hate him now!

So are their families.

As for those ordinary people who did not suffer direct losses, they were also very dissatisfied with the emperor.

After all, who wants to be a commoner for all generations? Especially after there is hope, hope is destroyed by people, or by what kind of absurd reason, this makes most people can not accept, all hope that the emperor will pay the price!

The good play is about to be staged, but Xie Linlang did not follow the emperor to the altar, but planned to wait.

At this time, she sat in front of the desk and looked carefully at a letter that diefei secretly put into her. This is Qin Jue's reply.

Seeing the content of the letter, Xie Linlang was satisfied, but also a little lucky.

Originally she wanted to help the emperor and the emperor. She was afraid that Qin Jue would feel uncomfortable and refused to help.

But fortunately, he is still very aware of the overall situation, temporarily put aside the prejudice, try to help her, let her be more powerful!

Sure enough, the previous dundundun teaching has not been in vain, this child is a material that can be made!

*

on the other side, after the emperor arrived, he was immediately frightened by the impenetrable posture!

Not only on both sides of the river, but also in the houses in the street next to it, and on the stone bridge above the river, there are dense people standing there!

In the past, the ceremony was very lively, but compared with today, it was two orders of magnitude!

And there were so many people on the scene, but there was no noise at all. The dignified atmosphere not only made the emperor nervous, but also the ministers accompanying him!

They can even feel a lot of obscure eyes looking at themselves, as if they are looking for someone.

What's more, the escorts found that many people held something secretly in their hands, which might be weapons!

This worried the commander of the imperial army. He trotted to the emperor and told him about it and asked.

"Your Majesty, there is something wrong with the situation. Will the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven continue today?"

The emperor glanced over the curtain to see the crowd outside the sedan chair. He remembered what Xie Linlang had said. He bit his teeth and was firm.

"Keep going, don't worry about them!"

At the emperor's command, the guard of honor went on.After the emperor's chariot passed, it was the imperial concubine's chariot.

Not all concubines can attend this kind of occasion, so only Liu huifei, diefei and the other two concubines came.

Feeling the unusual atmosphere, Liu huifei couldn't help but lift the curtain to have a look.

Seeing those people who were as weak as quails in the past, she could not help but show her resentment. Princess Liu Hui laughed secretly, thinking that when the emperor came, she would not be killed directly?

How can we say that the pariah is the pariah? So stupid, just for her.

After the imperial concubine's sedan chariot passed, it was accompanied by all officials.

On such an important day, they did not take sedan chairs, and today, all of them were ministers with more than six grades in the imperial court.

In addition to them, the clan elders who had left the court also came and arrived at the altar one step earlier than the emperor.

At that time, they will sit on the altar, sit at the emperor's head, and observe the whole ceremony.

At this time, many of the officials have reached an alliance or consensus, but how they will develop in the future depends on the outcome of today's drama.

After the ceremony, all the dignitaries came to the altar.

The emperor took the butterfly princess's hand and stepped up the white marble steps step by step.

In this process, he regretted that he had brought the butterfly Princess out. He should let her stay in the palace.

The emperor felt the resentment and resentment hidden in it, even the Longcheng river!

The emperor calmed down his mind and asked the people to get up. Before he could open the ceremony, he heard a message coming from afar.

"-- the emperor is coming!"

Just a sound, everyone looked at the past, the pace of that brush brush, see the emperor on the high platform is terrified!
