Leaving aside the palace and Mu Mansion, the most heavily guarded place in the imperial capital is the Imperial Ancestor Altar.

It is dedicated to the holy ancestors of the Yuwen royal family, the oldest of which can be traced back to the dark years more than 10,000 years ago. In addition to the resident priests, only the Heavenly Master can enter the entire Imperial Ancestral Altar without asking for permission, and others, including the princes and princesses, are not allowed to come without the permission of the Emperor, and those who violate it should be punished as a felony.

It wasn't until Emperor Yanling ascended the throne that there was one more national teacher on the list of the Emperor's Ancestral Altar, that is, Wen Lao.

This action made many people secretly amused, because there had never been a national teacher in Dayan's previous history. Wen Lao first took over the Supervision Department, and then was made an exception and was listed as a national teacher, and now he has become a frequent visitor to the Emperor's Altar, and the heart of the Emperor Yanling is well known to passers-by, which is obviously creating a person who can balance the Mu family's heavenly master.

In addition, Wen Lao and the other four elders also practiced Yandao, and it was rumored to be the extension of the Mu family's Yanshu, which made many people at that time firmly believe that there must be a civil strife in Dayan.

But the result was unexpected, the Heavenly Master could not come out of retreat, the National Teacher was methodical and did not make any mistakes with the Mu family, and the Yanling Imperial Palace never showed an obvious attitude, as if this matter was just a normal appointment and dismissal, Dayan has been calm for hundreds of years, and over time, many people have let go of this matter, and they have even forgotten it.

Until today, hundreds of years later, Mu Fangli, the then Heavenly Master of the Mu family, returned to the altar of the Emperor Ancestor, and this long-term memory was suddenly hooked up again.

Mu Fangli couldn't close his life, and the position of Heavenly Master fell on him one after another, so he was absent from the sacrificial activities at the Emperor's Ancestor Altar in the past, and they were all taken care of by the national teacher Wen Lao.

But today, Prince Dayan canonized the ceremony, Mu Tianshi came in person, and Wen Lao also came, and the two collided together, and it was very interesting who would preside over the sacrifice.

"Go down, I'll do what is going on today. ”

Mu Fangli was very simple and ordered his subordinates to send Wen Lao the same.

Elder Wen was not angry, and kept a polite smile and said: "Master Mutian, my emperor feels sorry for your old work, so he has already handed over this festival to the lower officials, so the main sacrifice is still under the officials." ”

With a light snort, Mu Fangli said lightly: "The Great Yan Law, the main sacrifice of all sacrifices should be served by the Heavenly Master, don't you know?"

Wen Lao's smile remained unchanged: "But in the past few hundred years of sacrificial activities, you haven't come to the retreat." ”

"You're assigning this seat, aren't you?" Mu Fangli's eyes turned cold.

"Of course not, how dare the lower officials assign you. Xiaguan means that you haven't handled this matter for hundreds of years, and some details are afraid that you will be unfamiliar, so Xiaguan wants to serve as the main priest today, first, to help you always recall, and secondly, it is also difficult to disobey the emperor's order, and I hope that the heavenly master will allow it!"

Mu Fangli's eyes were cold: "Do you mean to teach me?"

"Of course not, the Heavenly Master is too worried. ”

After Wen Lao finished speaking, he stood with a smile, and Ren Mufang Li did not back down at all no matter how he forced his gaze, and he always had a polite and humble smile on his face.

Seeing that Wen Lao insisted on not retreating, Mu Fangli frowned, and his eyes turned to see Da Fengchang waiting on the side, and immediately grabbed it.

"You say, should the old man be the main priest today, or should he be the main priest!"

Da Feng often broke out in a cold sweat, and his face turned pale.

It stands to reason that the main sacrifice should be served by him, the great priest, but Dayan has a heavenly master, and he, the great priest, has become a transparent person, and every sacrifice is for the heavenly master.

Later, the Heavenly Master went into retreat, he thought that the opportunity had come, but who knew that another national teacher would come down from the sky, he was still a high-ranking and light-handed little transparent, and he even suspected that the Yanling Emperor had even forgotten his name.

Today, the Heavenly Master and the National Teacher collided together, and he finally had a little adjustment in his boring life. I wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger watch a good show, but who knew that the Heavenly Master's words pushed him to the forefront.

Looking to the left, Mu Tianshi stared. Secretly swallowed his saliva and looked to the right, the national teacher also looked at him with a gentle smile, but how did that smile make him feel cold.

Seeing that the two of them were waiting for his answer, he gritted his teeth after a few hesitations, bowed down and said respectfully: "The lower official thinks that the emperor's order should be respected!"

I didn't say it directly, but I did say the answer.

Respect the emperor's order, isn't that the national teacher Wen Lao?

He is not a stupid person, he can't afford to offend the Heavenly Master and the National Teacher, but the one who can't afford to offend the most is Emperor Yan.

If you offend the Heavenly Master and the National Master, you can give him a small shoe to wear at most, and if you offend Emperor Yan, you will be disobedient to the Sacred Heart, which is fatal!

Bowing slightly at Da Fengchang, Wen Lao looked at Mu Fangli with a smile: "Master Mu, look..."

"Today is my grandson's big day, if you mess up... Hmph!"

With a flick of the sleeves of his robe, Mu Fangli turned around and left.

Looking at his back, Old Man Wen bowed and said, "Congratulations to Mu Tianshi!"

There are hiccups inside, and so do outside.

Sitting on the chariot without walls on all sides and walking all the way, Li Chuyi's mood was extremely bad.

Thinking that after the ceremony, he would ride around the imperial capital in this kind of chariot for three days, so that the people of the whole city could see this handsome face, and he felt that the world in front of him was gray.

This is the prince, isn't this a monkey!

Originally, he thought that this was the extreme, but when he didn't want to get off outside the Imperial Ancestor Altar, his mood was even worse.

Officials of all sizes lined up and waited, and at a glance, he saw Yu Yao at once, and looked at Yiren standing quietly next to Yuwen Taihao and smiling, his heart suddenly blocked, and then he had mixed tastes.

Seeing him coming, Yuwen Taihao greeted him with a group of princes and princesses. There were single and double members of the group, but in his eyes there were only Yuwen Taihao and Yu Yao in the front, seeing the two of them coming with a smile, he was suddenly full of anger, and raised his feet to greet him.

Just after taking a step, the little monkey chased after him with a low voice.

"Your Highness, you can't move, you have to wait for them to come and meet ......"

The voice stopped abruptly, Li Chuyi suddenly turned his head and looked at him coldly, he swore that he saw the killing intent in the other party's eyes, and the heart-chilling heart made the rest of the words stuck in his throat, and he lowered his head deeply and didn't dare to say another word.

"Humph!"

With a cold snort, Li Chu turned his head and left.

The princes and princesses who ushered in were stunned, not knowing if he did it on purpose or if he really didn't know the rules.

Yuwen Taihao was not surprised at all, smiled slightly and stepped up his pace, and came to Li Chuyi in a few steps.

"There are countless people in Dayan history who are in a hurry to be the prince, but you are the only one who is so explicit. ”

Yuwen Taihao teased, but Li Chuyi was in no mood to pick up, turned his head to look at Yu Yao and frowned, "Why are you here too?"

"The emperor asked me to come. Yu Yao replied softly.

Li Chuyi's heart sank.

The word "emperor" is not only a title, but also an attitude. Yu Yao used to be called Emperor Yan, but now that she is called the emperor, she is afraid that she has ......

"Have you thought about it?" asked Li Chuyi.

Glancing at Yuwen Taihao, Yu Yao nodded with a smile, and the firmness in his eyes made Li Chuyi sigh secretly.

"Brother Emperor..."

"Congratulations to the Great Emperor..."

The other princes and princesses came around, Li Chuyi was in an irritable mood, how could he have the time to deal with them, he didn't look at them and walked through directly with a cold face, leaving a group of princes and princesses frozen in place in embarrassment, their faces slightly ugly.

Li Chuyi didn't care about them, regardless of the little monkey's crying dissuasion, he walked straight to the officials and stopped in front of Wang Dachuan under the stunned gaze of everyone.

Although he knew what he was going to do, Wang Dachuan was still taken aback. He thought there should be a very subtle way of talking to each other, rather than being so grandiose.

"Xiaguan Wang Dachuan see His Royal Highness the Great Prince!

"Don't talk nonsense, what about people?"

"Your Highness, can you be quiet..."

"I didn't shout, what are you afraid of? Besides, is there anything unsightly about this?"

"This..."

Secretly smiling bitterly, Wang Dachuan hurriedly returned to the topic, leaned closer and whispered: "Your Highness, the person has already put it forward, but it is inconvenient to bring it over on this occasion, and it is enough to send someone to supervise the leader afterwards." ”

"No more, now!"

Li Chu didn't want to wait for a moment, and turned around to greet Li Sinian: "Fourth uncle, Hai Wufeng has brought it up, please go to the Supervision Department to get the person." ”

"Okay, I'll go!"

Li Chuyi turned around and left, but was stopped by Li Chuyi again.

"Wait a minute, bring the sunspots, in case those turtles are in

Grandson plays tricks, you can have a helper. ”

Xiao Er's black music is broken, those etiquettes are bigger than Li Chuyi, and he was worried about what to do for a while, when he heard it, he immediately jumped on top of Li Sinian's head.

"Let's go, let's go, the emperor is about to suffocate to death!"

Li Sinian smiled bitterly, let it pull the reins of his hair, and left the Imperial Ancestor Altar behind Wang Dachuan.

Half of his heart was relieved, Li Chuyi turned around and nodded lightly at Yu Yao.

Yu Yao's eyes suddenly lit up, and then quickly covered the mountain with a layer of fog. Hai Wufeng is her biggest knot, and his wish to save her is more than half of it.

Suddenly, a low bell rang, everyone's faces were solemn, and Yuwen Tianhao also leaned over solemnly.

"Prepare to enter, do you know the rules?"

"Sort of. Li Chuyi's words were ambiguous, and the little monkey behind him was scared half to death.

If the King of Zhenxi heard this, it would be okay if it was spread by the King of Zhenxi to the ears of the Yanling Emperor, then his sin would be great.

"Don't be afraid, rules are dead, people are alive, I'll remind you later, as long as you do it right, no one will blame you for small mistakes. Yuwen Tae-ho comforted.

Li Chuyi sneered and squinted his eyes: "Do you think I will care?"

Shaking his head helplessly, and then his face turned straight, and he motioned for Yu Yao to go over to the queue of his family, Yuwen Taihao stood on Li Chu's side with a solemn face, and behind him were the princes and princesses in order.

When the singing sound of the entrance came from afar, Li Chuyi sighed and walked towards the altar with his feet behind the honor guard. Later, the king of Zhenxi, the prince and the princess, then the civil and military officials, and finally the families of the officials and the wealthy families of Dayan, such as the Nalan family and the Zhao family, are all listed, and the number one wealthy family in the imperial capital has come to seven, seven, eight, eight.

In the team of the Nalan family, Nalan Mingyue stood beside her grandfather Nalan Duo, looking at the small figure in a yellow robe in the distance, and the corners of her mouth glanced secretly. Fu looked at the King of Zhenxi behind him again, and then gently turned his head and glanced at Yu Yao, who was the head of the family, with his eyes.

There are some things that are destined not to be obtained.

Or rather, it's over before it even begins.

This is the saddest of all.

Sighing, Nalan Mingyue beat her spirits.

Since you can't get it, let's keep watch silently.

If you can't be a couple, it's good to be a close friend.

"Mingyue, what's wrong? Why aren't you in a good mood?"

Grandpa's voice came, and Nalan Mingyue smiled and shook her head: "No, I'm in a good mood, but it's a little stuffy." ”

Glancing at Li Chuyi in the distance, Nalan Duo thought he understood something, smiled playfully and said dotingly: "Don't worry, grandpa will make the decision for you." As soon as this matter is over, I will go to your grandfather Mu, and grandpa will definitely do it for you..."

Listening to Nalan Duo chattering about his "big plan", Nalan Mingyue couldn't cry or laugh, her heart was warm and a little bitter at the same time.

There are certain things that very few people are destined to understand.

Li Chuyi can, but it's a pity that his grandfather doesn't understand.
