Chapter 100 The Day of the Sacrifice

The genius dawned, and the sacrificial ceremony began. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info Ye Daiwan sat in the warm room, watching the maids rush back and forth in a panic. This is probably the first time they have experienced such a solemn ceremony. Even Lu Shushen couldn't help but put on a serious face. After getting acquainted with it, Ye Daiwan knew that as soon as she put on the face of the teaching director, she was also nervous.

"Your Majesty, are you thirsty?" At this time, Lu Shushen would not ignore His Majesty's needs.

"It's okay, there's still water in the cup. Go ahead and do it yourself. Anyway, it won't be my turn until late afternoon. Ye Daiwan lazily leaned on the soft pillow, took a sip of the flower tea in the cup, raised the book on the table, and read it leisurely. The book she found in the Hermitage seems to be an anecdote based on the legends of the bridge mountain. The whimsy of the ancients is much more insightful than the brains of modern people. Gee.

"Your Majesty, it's really calm. Qingzhan couldn't help but let out a sigh of emotion. She was just standing next to her, and now she was so nervous that her heart was beating uncoordinated, and she hoped that she wouldn't be embarrassed by then.

"Your Majesty is Your Majesty, you should also hurry up and do things, don't be stunned there. Lu Shushen gently tapped her little head. Qingzhan immediately nodded weakly and quickly ran. There is still a lot to be done for the sacrificial ceremony. Ye Daiwan waited there quietly until the ceremony began. It's not that she's not nervous, it's just that it's useless to be nervous at this time, and this time everyone has to kneel there, and no one will see if she will make a mistake.

It looks like a boring feudal superstitious activity. However, the things that the ancients believed in always had a bit of mystery and mystery. Lu Shushen straightened Ye Dai's clothes and hung up the last gold and jade ornament. Ye Daiwan walked out of the palace and headed towards the highest altar as everyone bowed their heads and shouted.

Happy, crowded. Ye Daiwan could only see the black pressure underneath. With a solemn expression, she knelt solemnly, stood up, and knelt down again, repeating herself in the shouts of the master of ceremonies. The mat was so warm and a little warm, and it was extra comfortable in the cold wind.

Ye Daiwan followed the steps taught by Lu Shushen expressionlessly, no matter how big the inner brain hole was, she was doing her movements calmly. Who told her that she has done it I don't know how many times, and she is so skilled that she can follow the sound and do the movements in her dreams. That's the relationship with a strict instructor at home.

Just as she was making the final incense, Ji Xi, who had the sharpest nose, smelled a strange smell, she was not sure, but she could not hesitate any longer. Even if she would be punished later, she couldn't let go of this 1 in 10,000 possibility. If this danger will reach Your Majesty. "Your Majesty, no! It's the smell of gunpowder. ā€

Even if Lu Shushen wanted to solve this matter secretly, it was no longer possible. Ji Xi shouted in front of everyone's eyes It was a big crime, but no matter what kind of crime it was, it was not as important as His Majesty's safety, if there was really gunpowder hidden in the furnace. Not good!

Before Ye Daiwan could react, the incense on her fingers, the ashes that had been burned out, and the sparks fell into the furnace. A lot of gunpowder was mixed in it, and just a little spark could detonate the whole explosive. Qingzhan stood closest, she didn't think about it, she jumped up and protected Ye Daiwan under her.

"Boom!"

The altar was blown up in an instant. The nearest maids were crooked. The officials who were watching the ceremony below were all shocked, and several were even scratched by the fragments of the furnace that exploded. For a moment, the scene was chaotic. "There are rebels! Protect Your Majesty!"

Xu Jingming hid behind the protective body and did not receive any impact. Hearing this, he immediately rushed over. But he was shocked by the picture on the altar. The maids lay on the ground far and near, their beautiful faces stained with blood, and they all wailed in pain. But none of them went to safety. At the moment of the crisis, all they wanted was to rush in the direction where Ye Daiwan was.

The fastest is Qingzhan, then Lu Shushen, who is a little farther away but moves the fastest, and then Yu Yan. The reason why they didn't die in the first place was that they carried shields with them, which were impermeable and covered. The bursting flames burned the shield to the point that it melted in half, and the hands holding the shield were blistering. And Ye Daidu, who was bound to die, was firmly protected by the three people closest to her, and was only slightly injured.

"Your Majesty!" Xu Jingming hurriedly hugged Ye Daiwan out first. Although he was touched by this group of faithful handmaidens who protected the Lord, his mission was to put His Majesty's life first. He had just commanded the action of Qianniu to organize the blockade of the scene and search for suspicious characters. Doctors rushed forward to treat the injured.

How could this happen? Ye Daiwan was still stunned, her ears were hit by a huge impact, and they were still buzzing. She could only watch Xu Jingming's lips open and close in front of her eyes, but she couldn't hear a word. "I can't seem to hear with my ears. ā€

Her words made everyone turn pale with fright, and there was no blood at all. The imperial doctor hurriedly came to check Ye Daidu's body, and carefully examined it several times before making a decision. "It's not a big deal. Your Majesty, just a little tinnitus, and it will be fine after a while. ā€

Ye Daiwan only reacted at this time. Her first reaction was to question loudly. "Shushen, Qingzhan, Yu Yan...... What about them, what is their condition, hurry up and heal them. Whatever is missing, go to the library and get it. Just go. If anything happens to them, I'll ask you. Go quickly!"

The king is angry, and millions of corpses are ambushed!

Even though he knew that this was just a young empress, the huge deterrent power did not lessen in the slightest. Even Xu Jingming couldn't help but be stunned. Your Majesty is completely different from what it was half a year ago. Ye Daiwan still couldn't hear it, but it didn't prevent her from giving orders. "General Xu, inform General Jiang Ying, and immediately block Qiaoshan to search for suspicious candidates, and all those who have touched this furnace and gone to the altar will be tied up for me to interrogate. I can't catch any of them. Don't blame me for taking you for dereliction of duty!"

Resolute and resolute. He seems to have missed a lot. But the most important thing now is to catch the rebels. Xu Jingming didn't refute half a sentence, and immediately knelt down to receive the order. "The minister obeys the king's orders. ā€

Ye Daiwan bit her fingers and thought desperately. Damn, the teacher is not here, and You'an is not here, Shushen and they are so seriously injured, the only people she can use are Jiang Ying, who is being treated at the bottom of the mountain, and Xu Jingming, who is unknown to me. But the person who went to inform Jiang Ying has not returned. No, calm down. set up a game on a big day like the year-end festival, but only used a furnace filled with gunpowder, which also looked down on her too much.

Definitely, there must be a backhand.

Xu Jingming rushed in in a hurry, not even caring about the slightest etiquette. Just hear him shout. "Your Majesty, a large number of unidentified troops suddenly appeared in the mountains. Someone has already died in Qianniu's body!"
