Chapter 342: Ancestor Worship Ceremony

On this day, the imperial capital suddenly became lively, much more lively than the previous "Dancing Yang Festival", the entire imperial capital poured into a large number of people, most of them were powerful people from all sides, and even the "Battle of the King's Election" did not attract them to come, but today they have to come.

Because today is the "ancestor worship ceremony", the ancestor worship ceremony must be carried out at the imperial tomb, and today, even His Royal Highness the king, who has not shown up for a long time, must be present in person, which is a rule for thousands of years, and no one can violate it.

But today's "ancestor worship ceremony" obviously has a completely different atmosphere from previous years, the entire imperial capital has a tense atmosphere, since the prison was robbed, after three days of blockade of the whole city, now finally restored the previous order.

However, this is only on the surface, even the common people can feel that the imperial capital is obviously not very peaceful recently, almost as long as there are soldiers stationed in the place where they can see, and they have really achieved a small sentry in ten steps and a large sentry in a hundred steps.

In today's "ancestor worship ceremony", it is even more obvious, on this day in the past, the king sat in an open-air sedan chair, aiming to let the people also observe the dignity of His Royal Highness the king today.

But today it is completely different, not to mention the open-air sedan chair, the sedan chair that the king is sitting on is like an armored car, there is not even a single gap, even the sedan body can be seen to be completely strengthened, and it is impossible for ordinary bows and arrows to damage it at all.

Moreover, the soldiers surrounding this sedan chair are also three layers inside and three layers outside, densely packed like ants, and everyone has a solemn expression, as if they are facing a battle at any time.

Even so, he couldn't reassure the "Ten Nations Elders" who were walking in front, and from time to time he called the soldiers on patrol over to ask if there was anything abnormal, but every time the answer was no.

This makes the "elders of the ten countries" feel like they are on pins and needles, and it is almost certain that the "Alliance" will definitely choose to make a move today, and compared with the kind of strict security when the "ancestor worship ceremony" is carried out, it is obviously more dangerous when walking on the road.

But they obviously guessed wrong, and no matter how anxious they were, they arrived at the venue and nothing happened.

As soon as the king's car stopped, the old king couldn't wait to get out of it: "Damn, I don't think I need those guys from the "Alliance" to come, you guys just want to suffocate me alive, right?"

Unlike the "Old Man of the Ten Kingdoms", who looked overly nervous from beginning to end, the old king seemed calm and relaxed, and did not feel nervous about being the target of assassination at all.

The white-eyed old man led by the "Elder of the Ten Kingdoms" saluted: "His Royal Highness the King is laughing, you must not be careless, the Doma Empire is still inseparable from you!"

The rest of the "Ten Elders" all nodded yes, and this look of concern was not all pretended, the "Ten Elders" were indeed the cronies of the current king, and their glory was closely related to the old king.

The old king yawned: "Then there is no need to prepare this kind of iron cage, I was in a novel all night last night, and I didn't sleep well, and it is impossible to make up for sleep in this kind ......of iron cage."

The white-eyed old man sighed: "His Royal Highness the King still focuses on the overall situation, this empire can't do without you." ”

The old king still didn't feel nervous, but glanced at the white-eyed old man, and said in a low voice: "I'm quite satisfied with what I wrote recently, didn't I show you the draft? How do you feel? Is there a possibility of a big sale?"

The white-eyed old man's face twitched, to be honest...... The writing is still so bad! There is no growth at all, it is estimated that there will still be a large number of stockpiles at that time, but it is obviously inappropriate to upset His Royal Highness the King here, and the white-eyed old man coughed dryly: "It's okay...... Acceptable...... Maybe it could be a big hit. ”

Regardless of whether this is true or false, the old king was so happy when he heard it in his ears that he couldn't close his mouth anymore, and walked to the seat that had already been prepared with a small song: "Hurry up and get things done, I have to go back to catch up with the manuscript." ”

The white-eyed old man looked at a neatly dressed general who had just walked out of the venue, and the general saluted a few people, with a look of promise: "Please rest assured, Lord Guo, we have checked hundreds of times in the venue, even in the underground we have made holes and checked, not even a single ant, there is no problem." ”

The "Ten Kingdoms Elder" followed the king into the venue with confidence, saying that it was the venue, but in fact, there were not many seats, after all, everyone could not be allowed to sit when worshipping the ancestors, it was too disrespectful, and the only people who could sit down were the current king and several princes and princesses.

As soon as he walked into the venue, the face of the "Ten Nations Elders" changed, and the white-eyed old man turned even more angry, and beckoned to the general who arranged the venue.

But he didn't expect the white-eyed old man to raise his foot and kick him in a reel, and the general got up from the ground, still looking confused, what did he do wrong?

The white-eyed old man trembled and pointed to the place where the seats were arranged: "You...... How did you arrange that?"

The general raised his head: "At the top is His Royal Highness the King, and below is the seat of the three princes and princesses...... That's right......"

The white-eyed old man lowered his voice and said, "You idiot! The second prince has passed away, why do you still arrange his seat? Do you want His Royal Highness the King to see things and think about things?"

Although the news of the death of the second prince has not been announced, it is already known to everyone, and the old king must also know that they have been careful not to mention this matter these days, just because they are afraid that the old king will not be able to stand the blow, and he has lost his beloved son at such an old age.

The old king's eyes really fell on the second chair, and the cold sweat on the general's forehead instantly appeared, oh no, won't he just pull himself out and cut it......

But the old king's expression did not change significantly, he just shook his head slowly, and said lightly: "The second brother has passed away, why is there still a place for him here?"

This made the "old man of the ten kingdoms" look at each other, and he did not feel the slightest sense of grief from the old king's tone, as if he was just stating a fact, as if it was not his son who died......

At the beginning of the "Battle of the King's Election", the old king said that this "Battle of the King's Election" was "life and death", it seems that that sentence is the old king's true words?

The white-eyed old man was also a little surprised, but he still stepped forward: "Your Highness, it was our mistake, we will let people withdraw......"

The old king nodded and took the lead, he really didn't see any emotional fluctuations, and he was indeed not forcing his composure.
