Chapter 114: The Spring Society Begins with Walking on the Water

Follow the process,

In more than an hour, at the dawn of the rising sun, it is also the time when all things are born.

It was when Yuan Ruiming wanted to burn incense and bathe, change his sacrificial clothes, and take the imperial chariot to the Sheji altar for a formal sacrificial ceremony.

Bai Jingyin looked up at the dark sky without moon and stars, the coolness of early spring was cold, blowing through the sideburns, mixed with the smell of sandalwood.

"I was called here for some reason, and I finally have to go back to the palace."

She rubbed her sore neck, this palace is comfortable, the only bad thing is the hard and cold mud bed, she has only slept for a few days, and she is not feeling good anymore.

She stretched her waist and yawned, thinking that she must take a comfortable hot bath after returning to the palace after the festival, and then return to her soft and comfortable bed and sleep well for three days and three nights.

At this moment, an exclamation pierced the silent sky:

"Oh no, Chengsu Hall is gone, someone is coming, someone is coming, someone is coming!"

There was a commotion not far away, and soon there was chaos.

Chengsu Temple? Flow!

Bai Jingyin fixed his eyes and saw that the direction he came over was really filled with black smoke, and the firelight was not too big, but it also illuminated the back corner of the palace. The palace people suddenly became agitated, screaming, rushing to fetch water with wooden barrels, busy fighting fires, busy looking for someone to put out the fire, and the mess was a mess.

Isn't Yuan Ruiming still in it!

Bai Jingyin was extremely sober for a moment, worried about Yuan Ruiming's safety, and hurried to the direction of Chengsu Hall before he had time to think about it.

After arriving, I found that Gonggong Fu was also standing at the door, anxiously directing the palace guards to fight the fire.

"Hurry up, how can a bucket be enough, a few more people!"

Although there is a water tank outside the dormitory, it is obviously a drop in the bucket compared to the growing fire.

Bai Jingyin's face was solemn,

"When the fire is extinguished, there will be nothing left."

She didn't think much about it, and after putting down this sentence, she quickly took off her outer robe, soaked it in water, and then closed her eyes and covered her head, and had enough strength to rush to the temple to save people.

This move really scared Father-in-law Fu,

subconsciously blocked in front of Bai Jingyin, was hit to the ground by a solid sturdy, covered his chest and didn't care about getting up, first hugged Bai Jingyin's legs and said loudly:

"Niangniang, what are you going to do, cough cough, the fire is so big, you are going to die if you go in."

"I won't go in to save the emperor, if something happens to the emperor, everyone present will die and apologize, let go quickly." Bai Jingyin shouted anxiously, "The emperor treats you well on weekdays, if you don't sacrifice yourself to protect me and stop me, what is your intention!" ”

"Huh?" Father-in-law Fu was stunned for a moment, and then they all understood, "Niangniang, you misunderstood, the emperor has already finished waiting in the main hall, and he is not here." ”

He stood up and explained.

"The emperor is not there?" Bai Jingyin blinked in confusion, "Then what are you doing in such a hurry." ”

"The fire in the palace is a bad omen, and the emperor is very concerned about this matter, so he asked the old slave to come over and deal with it as soon as possible, and by the way, thoroughly investigate what the reason is.

"Then you should have said it earlier, scare me." Bai Jingyin breathed a sigh of relief and took off the wet clothes on his head.

"Niangniang's heart is about the emperor, and she doesn't have time to listen to the old slave."

"Who cares about him?" Bai Jingyin glared at him, and was about to explain that his powerful and awe-inspiring feat was for everyone's common destiny, when he heard a few strange movements.

Looking at the corner bamboo forest where the sound came, there was no wind but the branches and leaves were swaying, and it was really strange.

She took the lantern and walked warily in that direction.

"I've seen you, it's hard to fly with wings, and I'm not ready to catch you!" She snapped a warning.

As soon as the words fell, I saw that there was really a black shadow jumping from the bamboo forest and jumping onto the eaves, and fled in the direction of the outside of the palace.

"What are you doing in a daze, catching assassins!" Gonggong Fu came back to his senses and shouted at the guards behind him, and at the same moment, Bai Jingyin also flew out and chased in the direction where the man in black fled.

Looking at the group of guards below, I'm afraid there is no shadow.

Bai Jingyin calmly pursued with light skills, his eyes staring closely at the man in black in front of him.

Her light skills are not the most outstanding, but it is obvious that this 'assassin's foot skills are even worse, and seeing that the distance between the two is gradually shortening, the assassin changed direction and flew towards the altar of Sheji.

Dying

Bai Jingyin smiled disdainfully and followed the assassin in pursuit.

Outsiders were not allowed to enter the shrine before the sacrificial ceremony began, so there was nothing else except Bai Jingyin and the man in black.

The altar is built high on the ground, filled with five colors of soil, yellow in the middle, green in the east, red in the south, white in the west, and black in the north, symbolizing the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. I once heard Yuan Ruiming say that these are tributes from all over the world, which shows that 'under the whole world, it is not the king's land' is very particular.

In the center of the altar is erected the 'Jiangshan Stone' that represents the eternal stability of mountains and rivers, and under the stone is the sacrificial table dedicated to the two gods of Taisha and Tai Sacrifice, with incense and candles on livestock, and most importantly, the five-color sacrificial plate that Yuan Ruiming will hold later.

The man in black stood abruptly in front of the sacrificial table at this moment, looking around at the emptiness, as if he had given up resistance.

"If you're unlucky, don't learn from others at this moment, you don't know the right place to choose to escape, and you don't even have a place to hide." Bai Jingyin sneered coldly,

Walking towards him without hurrying,

"But you can't escape, it's best to be honest, who sent you to set fire to the emperor in order to assassinate the emperor?"

The man in black did not speak, but looked down at the sacrificial plate on the table.

"It's tough."

Bai Jingyin snorted coldly, and with a distance of less than ten steps, he was about to take it back directly for interrogation. But the man in black, who didn't run away or resist, suddenly pulled out the knife on his waist at this moment, just when Bai Jingyin thought that he was going to fight to the death to attack him,

only to find that the 'one fight' did not exist, and that person was just trying to fight to the death.

Sharply flipped the blade of the cold light, cut his neck with his backhand, and when Bai Jingyin rushed up to stop it, before he could shout 'don't', he was already splashed with blood.

The hand that reached out froze in place,

Bai Jingyin's eyes widened,

I looked at the wound that was nearly half deep, and the blood that flowed all over the ground in an instant.

Footsteps and firelight,

From the guards and father-in-law Fu who have only arrived now,

"Where are the assassins?"

Fu Gonggong pushed aside the guards who drew their knives and stood in a circle, and rushed to the front, but when he saw the situation on the altar, he gasped, rolled his eyes, and fainted to the ground.

Bai Jingyin wiped the blood on his face with his sleeve,

Looking at the frightened eyes of the guards, and the frightened father-in-law Fu who was stunned on the ground,

I felt a chill in my back, and my mind was blank.
