After drinking the medicine, Lin Wan accompanied Lin Huixin to the dining room to eat. Originally, Lin Huixin was already very hungry, but after drinking a bowl of decoction, her mouth was full of bitterness, and her stomach was still rolling, so she didn't have any appetite. I had eaten less than half of it, and I couldn't eat it anymore.

Lin Huixin put down the dishes and chopsticks, shook her head, and said in frustration: "I'm full, I feel that my stomach is uncomfortably swollen." After thinking about it, he said, "Wan'er, why don't we go for a walk outside, maybe it will be better." ”

Lin Wan nodded and said happily: "Great, your current situation is relatively normal." Let's go, let's go for a walk by the lake, just in time to watch the sunset. ”

Lin Huixin slowly stood up, and Lin Wan hurriedly got up to support her. One of Lin Huixin's maids also stepped forward and held her other side. The other maid went back to her room and moved a stool, hugged a cushion, and followed quietly.

A group of four people slowly walked towards the backyard of the eldest princess's mansion. Lin Huixin's body was weak, she walked very slowly, and she had to stop and rest after walking for a while, sit for a while and then walk. Before we even reached the lake, the sun had already set.

Lin Huixin shook his head in frustration and said, "Let's go back and come back next time." ”

Lin Wan didn't force it, nodded and said, "Sister Huixin, don't be discouraged, you have made great progress today, take your time, everything will be fine." ”

Lin Huixin nodded, smiled, and said, "Wan'er, don't worry, I've figured it out, and I won't let you down." As he spoke, he looked at his bulging lower abdomen, stroked it gently, and said word by word: "Even if it is for the sake of the child, I have to work harder." I can't leave him alone in this world. ”

Lin Wan smiled with satisfaction and said happily: "Sister Huixin, he is not alone, and so many of us love him and love him! Only you are the person who loves him the most in this world, and the one who can do anything for him. ”

Lin Huixin smiled and nodded, "Wan'er, thank you." In fact, I understand these truths in my heart, but I don't have the courage to face them and overcome them. Only you, who have never given up on me and my children, have tried your best to make me realize how dangerous my current situation is and how difficult my children's situation will be in the future, so that I have to be strong and have to face such a serious problem as I am now. Moreover, I have noticed that my state of mind has also changed, I am more optimistic than before, and I have confidence in myself. ”

Lin Wan took Lin Huixin's hand, nodded heavily, and said, "That's nature, you see your own changes, you see hope, and you have confidence in yourself, and you have confidence in the future." I will help you, but no matter how many people help you, in the end, it is up to you, and only you can help you. Even if you love a child, you can't spoil it, you have to know what you should do, right?"

Lin Huixin was stunned for a long time before she nodded and said, "Wan'er, you said it so well, I just woke up now that my love for this child is indeed a little excessive." I was already spoiled by me before I was born. Fortunately, you woke me up in time, otherwise the consequences would have been really unimaginable. ”

Lin Wan smiled faintly, helped Lin Huixin to walk back slowly, and as soon as he walked outside Luoying Garden, he saw Zhou Changying walking far away with Ning Wuwu and Feng Zhanggong.

Lin Huixin saw that Lin Wan seemed to have something to say to Zhou Changying, smiled slightly, and said, "Wan'er, I'll go back by myself, you don't have to accompany me." You and Her Royal Highness the eldest princess must have important matters, and I won't delay you. ”

Lin Wan hooked her lips slightly, nodded, and said, "Sister Huixin, then you should be careful, go to bed early at night, and I'll go to see you tomorrow, okay?"

Lin Huixin smiled and nodded, and with the support of the two maids, she slowly walked towards Huixinju. Lin Wan watched Lin Huixin gradually walk away, and then strode towards Luoying Yuan.

Zhou Changying and Ning Wuwu saw Lin Wan coming, stood outside Luoying Garden for a while, and waited for Lin Wan to come to him before walking towards Luoying Garden together.

Several people sat in the dining room of Luoying Garden, waiting for Feng Zhanggong to start eating, and talked about what happened in the imperial tomb today.

This morning, before dawn, hundreds of civil and military officials had already gathered at the gate of the palace, waiting for the palace gate to open, and then entering the palace in turn.

Zhou Changying naturally didn't have to line up with those officials, and as soon as he arrived at the gate of the palace, Feng Qizheng, the commander of the Yulin Army, greeted him and personally led their carriage to the palace.

In the open space outside the main hall, Zhou Changan wore a bright yellow dragon robe, standing majestically on the steps, and behind him stood Zhou Tianhong, Zhou Tianming, Zhou Tianzheng, Zhou Tianzhong, Zhou Tianqi and others, all wearing formal princely clothes.

Lu Qishan also took the queen Lu Jinyun, the imperial concubine Liu Jinghua, the jade concubine Wang Yuqin, Concubine De, Concubine Shu and others to stand behind Zhou Changan, all wearing dignified and elegant palace clothes, standing motionless in the cold wind, blooming quietly like plum blossoms.

The imperial mausoleum of the Great Feudal Kingdom was built on the Dragon Vein Mountain behind the palace, and every year Zhou Chang'an would take the civil and military officials to the imperial mausoleum to worship their ancestors before and after the Qingming Festival. But this year, it was suddenly decreed to sacrifice to the heavens and to commemorate the ancestors. The officials of the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Rites were caught off guard, and even if they didn't sleep all night, they prepared very hastily.

After the palace gate was opened, the hundred officials bowed to Zhou Changan, Lu Qishan and others, and then, Zhou Changan didn't say anything, and led everyone to the back mountain.

The road behind the mountain was cleaned by the Ministry of Rites and the palace people overnight, although it was the first time for everyone to go to Longmai Mountain in such cold weather, but no one dared to say a word of complaint.

The ritual process has always been very complicated, and there is a set of rules that follow it step by step. Zhou Changan led everyone, under the arrangement of Meng Xiaoren, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, to offer incense, bow, thank God, and recite sacrifices in front of the altar over and over again.

Lu Qishan didn't believe that Zhou Changan did this because he was sincerely grateful to God and worshiped heaven and earth and the ancestors of the Zhou family. always thinks that Zhou Changan is because of some agreement with Zhou Tianqi, Zhou Changying, and Master Lingyin, so he arranged this ceremony to worship the sky, just to hide people's eyes.

However, when Gonggong Qi finished reading the sacrificial text, a loud noise suddenly appeared in the originally clear sky, allowing everyone to see a thunderbolt in the clear sky.

All the officials hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and Zhou Changan was also frightened on the spot, and after a while, he came to his senses, knelt down on his knees, and bowed reverently to the sky.

In this way, no one dares to doubt the importance and authenticity of this sacrifice, even Lu Qishan was shocked, lowered his head, and no longer dared to doubt it, until he returned to the palace, he still had palpitations, and hurriedly went to the Buddhist hall to recite the scriptures and pray for blessings.
