Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info And no matter how the forces of all parties calculate, a few days later the New Year is still coming as scheduled, the whole palace is not yet dawn The palace people are busy preparing for the green sweeping, the red silk hangs all over the verandah and the palace of the palace, the frozen lake is sprinkled with golden chrysanthemum petals, the Chaohua Hall of the New Year's banquet has been arranged, and the chief of the Ouchi is busy like a spinning top to send the palace people in and out of the palace of the masters to send the New Year's cakes, and at this time the queen and the emperor are also dressed up properly, and change into a grand court dress is to go to the royal temple!

This kind of worship to the gods and worship the ancestors of the moment of natural favor of the prince can follow the emperor and queen's side, only to see the six princes and the king of the same black show unicorn court clothes, wearing a beaded crown waist knife, the bright red cloak behind him is like a sharp blade blown by the wind clanging, although it is the same dress temperament but completely different, one left and one right follow the emperor and queen slowly forward, the aura of the whole body is full of aura, but there is a bit of competition!

At this time, the six princes were absolutely uncomfortable, although he was the same as the court clothes of the king, but the crown of the pearls on the head of the king was two more than him, which represented the king's royal level, and he was now favored by the old emperor but never mentioned the king's thing, and he still has no king-level prince, and he has occupied the name of a son-in-law, but because of the existence of the king, it is still an embarrassing situation that is not justified!

This heart is always thinking about this little thing, the gentle smile on the face of the six princes all the year round is inevitably a little lighter, but worshipping the ancestors is a serious matter, such a change is not noticed, and finally the group stopped in front of the altar of the sacrifice, the old emperor under the guidance of the priest is slightly lifted his robe and climbed the high altar, the high-soled dragon boots just stepped on the marble steps, the prince and concubine clan ministers behind him immediately leaned down and knelt, although the emperor is almost equivalent to a puppet for so many years, but at this time on the altar, he is still the high ninety-five, the closest to the god of heaven!

Waiting for the old emperor to walk up the last step to stand on the altar, the priest on the side of the ritual music is to hand over the incense in a timely manner, in front of him is seven groups of gods, each group of gods are built with Xuanqing satin into a temporary shrine, the top layer of white jade north side set up the emperor god seat, the second layer set up the sun, moon and stars and clouds, rain and wind and thunder tablets, the god seat displays five grains and a handful of loess in front of the god seat, and there are whole pigs, whole cows, whole sheep and wine dishes, the emperor of Xianle stretched out his hand to take the incense and lit it to the sky, three bows to the sky, the mouth is chanting the sacrifice to the heavens, and suddenly the whole altar is only the sound of the quaint chime bell and the solemn greetings of the emperor of Xianle!

Wait until the end of the sacrifice of the Emperor of Xianle, and then three bows are to insert the incense into the small tripod in front of him, grab the five grains in the tribute plate in front of him is to scatter them to the sky, the grain falls to the ground, the queen is to get up and climb the altar to sprinkle the second handful of grains, and then the emperor and queen worship the gods of heaven and earth, it is the turn of the heir to the throne to come forward and sprinkle the third handful of grain!

At this time, the scene was still a little embarrassing, the queen naturally didn't want to let the king come forward, but the old emperor was eccentric, at this time, in order to make the queen compromise, he beckoned to the six princes and the king, the corners of the queen's mouth twitched, barely stabilized her anger, and signaled to her son, the six princes saw that they were speeding up the pace in the last few steps of the altar, but the slow king was squeezed directly to the back!

The two princes competed, and the ministers who knelt down below didn't see it, kneeling honestly in their own positions, even the gifted priests kept silent, although it was not in accordance with the etiquette and law to come forward with the two heirs, but no one would be unintentional and unintentional at this time to stir up the battle between the emperor and the queen!

No matter how awe-inspiring the gods of heaven and earth are, they can't compare to the ghost head knife handed to the neck in front of them!

No one should be this bird, the six princes stepped forward and grabbed a handful of grains and threw them into the sky, just handed a smug look to the king, but he didn't expect the wind and clouds to suddenly change in the air, and a thunderbolt slashed towards him, and immediately frightened everyone on the altar shouted and dodged, the king protected the old emperor, and the queen fell directly to the altar in a panic!

"Someone, escort, escort・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・" The crowd was in a mess, this sudden lightning directly frightened everyone, thinking that it was a punishment from heaven, and the minister's clan was crowded into a mess that directly alarmed the imperial city army guarded, waiting for the guards to come forward to protect Xianle Huang and others It was already a few minutes later, the queen rolled down from the high altar and was rescued by the guards, she was not seriously injured, but she was also embarrassed, the phoenix crown on her head was scattered to the ground, and her hair was like a madman beggar, at this time, she trembled and looked in the direction of the six princes, her vision was blocked by the crowd, her heart was cold, and her eyes were dark, and she fainted directly!

Such an accident directly disrupted the entire ritual of sacrificing to the heavens, and Emperor Xianle stabilized his mind and shouted angrily to the guards: "Don't hurry up and drag that rebel son down with me, drag it down!"

As soon as the guards heard this, they hurriedly rushed to the six princes who fainted, and hurriedly lifted their limbs to get people off the altar, and the emperor saw that this was to throw off the palace people and guards who were holding him and ran to the center of the altar.

"The sky is manifested, the sky is manifested・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・" Seeing this, the talented priest's face was flushed with excitement, his eyes were full of madness staring at the king of Xian, and he knelt down to the king with a plop and kept worshipping!

Everyone was stunned by this sudden scene, as if they pressed the pause button and froze in place, this strange scene revealed an inexplicable sense of joy, which really made this ritual of worshiping the sky completely become a farce!

In the middle of the night, the farce of the day directly led to the cancellation of the New Year's Eve banquet that had been prepared for many days, at this time the queen was in front of the bed of the six princes and kept wiping her tears, cursing in her mouth, the vicious words were hard to believe that they were spit out from the mouth of the usually dignified and virtuous queen, and when the six princes woke up quietly, they saw the weeping queen mother and felt a burst of grievances!

"Queen Mother!"

The sixth prince's mother still has a trill, and she is wronged!

"My son, you're awake, where are you still uncomfortable, Yulan, go and call the imperial doctor in!" As soon as the queen heard her son's words, she hurriedly shouted, but was held down by the sixth prince!

"Queen Mother, Queen Mother, don't call people in, my son doesn't want to see anyone else!" was actually struck by lightning and fainted during the ceremony of sacrificing to the sky, even if he was not seriously injured now, but the six princes really felt embarrassed and didn't want to see anyone!

Seeing that her son was uncomfortable, the queen hurriedly comforted: "Okay, no, no, Yulan, go and bring the ginseng tea!" The palace attendant on the side hurriedly agreed, and the queen and the other palace attendants helped the six princes up, and waited to lean on the bedside and drink ginseng tea, the warm tea was in the stomach, but the tears of the six princes remained!

"Queen Mother, my son won't be able to see anyone in the future!" the sixth prince choked up, and this sentence almost made the queen cry again!

"What kind of stupid thing can you say on the altar, it is definitely the bastard who sacrifices the king to make a ghost, Yu'er, don't worry, the queen mother will definitely give you this bad breath!"

The queen trembled with anger when she thought of the farce of the day, what heavenly gods appeared, in her eyes it was a fart, nothing was in her hands, the old thing of the Emperor of Xianle would pick the time, and the good show with the king was directly ruined the image she had established for her son for so many years, although the news of the altar had been blocked, but the civil and military officials and the royal clan present were not deaf and blind, and it was absolutely impossible for her to cover the sky with one hand!

The root of the queen's teeth was itching, but the sixth prince remembered the old emperor: "Queen Mother, how is my father?"

"You still think about that old thing, in his eyes, but there is only one son of King Xian!" The queen has some hatred for iron and steel, since she became the queen and married Emperor Xianle, who was nearly 20 years older than herself, what kind of life did she live in the first few years, trembling all day long for fear that her status would be unstable and become a joke!

As soon as he heard the queen say this, the six princes were silent, lowered their heads slightly, and raised them after a few breaths, their eyes were full of gloom!

"Queen Mother, how is the eldest uncle?"

"Don't worry, it's all ready, three days later, I will definitely let that old thing abdicate and make way for Xian!"

Originally, I was going to prepare a New Year's dinner party to put people in prison first, but I thought that now there was an accident and the king followed the old emperor by his side, which was not far away, so it was not good to start rashly, so if it was delayed, it would only wait until the early dynasty three days later to wait for the opportunity to do it!

At this time, the lights in the palace were dim, and the houses of the various clan ministers outside the palace were not much better.

Yang Xu was impatiently walking back and forth in the study at this time, his hands behind his back, his palms were full of cold sweat, the accident at the altar earlier today scared him out, so that now he is still shivering from time to time, and the cold sweat on his forehead flows directly into his eyes It is simply a sulfuric acid effect, which makes Yang Xu's eyes sting, and he is shocked and angry and directly kicked over the bookcase next to him, and the loud bang scared the housekeeper outside the door to jump in his heart, and hurriedly pushed open the door and rushed in!

"My lord, my lord, are you okay!" Thousands of people hurriedly supported Yang Xu, who was standing unsteadily, and as soon as he sat down, Yang Xu shook off the butler's arm!

"Who told you to get in, and you just got into Ben-sama's study?"

The housekeeper was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly made a confession: "Adult, adult, isn't the little one worried about you, please calm your anger, and the little one will go out!" Before the housekeeper's voice fell, he hurriedly bent down and retreated, Yang Xu frowned when he saw it, and shouted: "Get back!"

"Adult ???????????" The housekeeper immediately stopped, neither did he retreat, and looked at Yang Xu's gloomy face, but he still moved back little by little!

Seeing this, Yang Xu directly kicked on the butler's knee, and the butler screamed in pain for the rest of his life, and the butler knelt in front of Yang Xu with a plop!

"Let me ask you, how much money do we still have in the house?"

"My lord, this ??????? This villain doesn't know, so the villain is going to get the ledger?"

"You waste, go, go now!" Yang Xu waved his hand irritably, and the housekeeper limped up and hurriedly ran out of the study, waiting to come back with a thick stack of account books, and knelt down again!

"My lord, there are two thousand taels of silver in the account of the house, one hundred and twenty-six taels of silver horns, twelve taels of gold, and the rest of the property is mostly ear bottle jade, and the valuable utensils in the house are worth about three hundred and twenty-six taels.

"Fart, why is there so little money left in the account, and the rest of the more than 30,000 pieces of silver in the account are all greedy by you?" Yang Xu got up angrily and gave the butler another kick, and the butler who kicked it directly rolled backwards and hit the pillar of the study directly!

"Your Excellency??????? Adult, villain don't dare, the account at the beginning of the month is indeed 30,000 taels of silver, but this month our house has filled a lot of maids and servants, and a few more ladies, a few days ago the old lady went to incense to donate incense money is to donate 300 taels, you go out to socialize on weekdays, this month is also 3,000 taels of silver, the small has always been loyal to you, but never dare to be selfish, adults, the small will never dare to touch a penny on the account!" was kicked in the center of the fossa, the bright red blood at the corner of the housekeeper's mouth left a shocking mark, his eyes kept kowtowing with tears, but Yang Xu who looked at it was a wall in his heart!

It has only been nearly a month since he took office in the capital, and he only cares about pleasure and notices the money in the account, and it is simply a surprise that there are only more than 2,000 pieces of silver left in the account!

"You, you go, ask for two hundred taels of silver, pick two more maids, and send my mother back to her hometown first!" Holding the armrest of the Taishi chair with his palm, Yang Xu closed his eyes!

"Yes, my lord, let's do it for the little ones!" The housekeeper got up with a roll, and it was terrible that Yang Xu gave himself another kick, wiped his tears, snot and the blood on the corner of his mouth with his sleeve, and hurriedly walked out of the study door, and as soon as the housekeeper left, Yang Xu's body was weak, and he collapsed on the chair!

He always had a bad premonition, thought about it, stood up after a while, straightened his clothes slightly, and walked out of the study towards the inner courtyard of the back house!
