The condition of the little emperor is becoming more and more optimistic, some "flowers" have begun to scab, and the pulse of the imperial doctor, more than once, has appeared with the words "good symptoms".

"The symptoms are good", all depends on the "flower" hair through, and the "flower" hair is so thorough, Ci'an thinks that it is really thanks to the worship of the "pox god Niangniang", seeing the effect, the "pox god Niangniang" is merciful, and finally the "five poisonous pox" is collected from the body of the little emperor!

Count the days, it is the twelfth day of the little emperor's "smallpox joy", look at the situation, you can prepare to send the "pox god Niangniang" out of the palace!

The subtext of this "send-off" is: Now that you have eaten and drunk enough, you can take it with you, and now, you can go, right? Please, don't come back when you're gone!

The statue of the "pox god Niangniang" was invited from the Yangxin Hall to the Qin'an Hall in the Imperial Garden, and in this process, Ci'an personally knelt down with incense and offered a salute.

Originally, this work should have been done by the patient's biological mother, but the little emperor's biological mother is now in Tianjin, and the mother-in-law is naturally obliged.

Also, the queen mother salutes the gods, generally speaking, only to the Buddha and Guanyin will kneel, the position of "pox god Niangniang", in the god and Buddha system, is actually very low, and it is an "evil god", which should not be worthy of the queen mother's queen mother's kneeling. But Ci'an didn't mind, not only knelt down, but also said, "The letter girl Niu Co Lu respectfully invites the mother to drive the phoenix."

Viewers and hearers secretly say that the Queen Mother and Queen Mother are really motherly and heartfelt, and they love their son!

also said that the queen mother and queen mother are so "face-giving", this "pox god mother", if she still refuses to leave, she will be too scoundrel.

The red carpet starts from the Ming Hall of the Heart Cultivation Palace, and paves out the Heart Cultivation Gate all the way. Left and east, out of Zunyi Gate, then left and north, along the west of a long street, all the way paved past, through the near light right door, Changkang right door. Turn right into the west gate of Qiongyuan, enter the imperial garden, then turn left into the Tianyi Gate, and finally enter the Qin'an Palace.

The statue of the "pox god Niangniang" stepped on this extremely long red carpet and "moved" the Qin'an Hall from the Heart Cultivation Palace.

Hey, this "courtesy" is the Buddha and Guanyin Bodhisattva, you have to drool when you see it, right?

By the rules. "Pox God Niangniang" is in the Qin'an Palace, and then eats three days of offerings, and then "sends out of the palace".

Seeing that the "pox god Niangniang" moved lively, some eunuchs said that there are many "god cards" and "god masters" in various places in the palace, such as the Miao Lianhua Room, Ninghui Hall, and Guangsheng Building in the Fujian Palace Garden; In front of the saint in the east of the Qianqing Palace, in front of the king of medicine; The west case, the north case, the front of the stove king, and the front of the Buddha of the East Warm Pavilion of Kunning Palace; The Heavenly Dome Treasure Hall on the east side of the East Sixth Palace...... And so on and so forth, it's the Imperial Garden. In addition to the Qin'an Hall and Tianyimen, there are also Qianqiu Pavilion and Fighting Altar - these places. are all offered to the gods and Buddhas, this, "the Holy Son of Heaven has the care of a hundred gods", in addition to the "pox god Niangniang", other gods in the palace, should they also express it?

The words reached Ci'an's ears. She thought it was true: a bowl of water is uneven, and it is not good to offend other immortals! Therefore, the Minister of the Interior was sent to represent the Holy Bow. Go to the above places and salute them one by one.

The person who made this mission was Mingzen, who was the lowest ranked among the ministers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

The "transfer" of the "pox god mother", and the subsequent "gift out of the palace", are usually handled by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. However, Bao Jun, who was the "key" among the ministers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, under the pretext that he was not familiar with the relevant regulations, recommended Mingshan to Ci'an to take charge of his affairs, and Mingshan also thought that Bao Pei Yu "bought a firecracker for me to put on", so Xingxing took office as the head.

In fact, Bao Jun has other ideas.

The scholars among the courtiers think that Bao Jun is unwilling to do this errand, which is a matter of course, Bao Pei Yu's Shilin Feng Review, although it is not much better, but the person is a genuine Jinshi background, a serious Hanyuan senior, this "pox god Niangniang", I don't know where the Zoza fairy appeared, Confucius is silent, how can Bao Pei Yu be willing to do an errand for her?

Since the matters related to the "pox god Niangniang" are all handled by Mingshan, then the messenger who gave birth to incense for the gods in the palace was naturally sent to Mingshan.

When Ming Shan's errand was prosperous, and when he "handed over" the decree to Ci'an, he further suggested that it was not enough to just pay tribute to incense, and that "all the saints of the heavens should be crowned with titles", that is, the officials of the Buddhas.

Ci'an confusedly "as invited".

Mingshan returned to the Internal Affairs Office, and immediately went to the Ministry of Culture and Rites, saying that Qin Fengyi decreed, so and so, you hurry up and enter the official for the Mantian God Buddha!

Wan Qingqui, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Fang Dingrui, the waiter, read the official document, and they all thought that the Internal Affairs Office was messing around, and if they really did this, and if it was passed out, it must be treated as a joke, but this matter, the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother had already nodded after all, what should I do?

In desperation, Wan Qingli and Fang Dingrui brought the official document of the Internal Affairs Office to ask Guan Zhuofan for instructions.

Guan Zhuofan read the official document, smiled, and said: "Zhaozhai, Ziying, this matter is easy to do, you just go back to the queen mother and the queen mother, and say that it is supposed to repay the ghosts and gods, but you have to wait until the holy bow is really safe, and then you can talk about the 'reward' layer - this is like military merit, there is no battle still fighting, so the reason for being an official and entering the knighthood, right?" ”

"Terusai" is the number of Wan Qing Quinoa.

Wan Qingqui and Fang Dingrui glanced at each other, and nodded in unison: "What the prince said is extremely true!" ”

"In addition," Guan Zhuofan said, "serious gods and Buddhas all have stomachs. For example, the main god of the Qin'an Temple is the Emperor Zhenwu, but when the Qin'an Temple was rebuilt in this dynasty, it was placed in the treasure roof and used to 'town the palace', but it was the Tantric scriptures, according to the fasting, right? ”

Wan Qingquan showed a slightly embarrassed look, hesitated for a moment, and looked at Fang Dingrui.

Fang Dingrui nodded and said, "That's the case, the prince is really knowledgeable!" Not many people know about this matter, I heard what Bao Peiyu said, and he listened to the people of the Internal Affairs Office - it was the hand of the Internal Affairs Office to rebuild the Qin'an Palace. ”

Guan Zhuofan nodded and said, "It can be said that the Qin'an Hall has passed through the confluence of the Buddha's Dao - I haven't seen any opinions from Xuantian God?" Now, the 'pox god Niangniang' borrows the land of Xuantian God to eat for a few days and worship, don't they also give each other a harmony? Anyway, I didn't eat the share of the Xuantian God! ”

Xuantian God, that is, the Emperor Zhenwu.

"So," Kwan said. "Please rest assured that the Queen Mother and Queen Mother, one yard is one yard, we worship the 'pox god Niangniang', other gods and Buddhas, they will never be jealous because of this, scatter pox, collect pox. That's what she does! ”

After a pause, "The most important thing is - you have to know the queen mother, you shouldn't compare, don't dare to compare randomly!" We are now offering the 'pox god Niangniang', begging her to leave the palace as soon as possible, is it possible that we are also begging other gods and Buddhas to leave the palace with the 'pox god Niangniang'? ”

Wan Qingqui and Fang Dingrui both showed knowing smiles.

"Your Majesty," Guan Zhuofan said. "According to the Imperial Doctor, it will take about three months, and after three months, who will remember this? Just leave it aside, 'dry' it's just that. ”

"Yes, follow the prince's instructions!"

Wan Qingquinoa and Fang Dingrui were taught by Guan Zhuofan, and in this way, they returned to their mothers, queen mothers. The queen mother and queen mother naturally "follow the good as the stream" and add officials to the gods and Buddhas. Just put it down.

During the three days that the "pox god Niangniang" ate and worshipped in the Qin'an Palace, the little emperor's illness became more and more "smooth".

There are more and more scabbed "flowers", and in some places, they have begun to fall off, as written on the pulse case. It is "the scab is getting red, and the symptoms are good" - the words "symptoms are good" appear again; From the eye, it is indeed "the skin color is gradually brightened".

On the third day, the fifteenth day of the Little Emperor's "Smallpox Joy", there were still three days left before the end of the eighteen-day "danger period". But the Taiyi is already seventy or eighty percent sure that the "most difficult pass" should have passed!

It seems that the "pox god Niangniang" has no intention of going, and she can "send her mother"!

This is the most bizarre "happy event" in the world, and finally shows a trace of real "joy".

The people involved in the "Sending Niangniang" were deacons in the palace of the prince of Beijing, excluding the ministers of the imperial court. This meaning is to worship and send off the "pox god Niangniang", which is not an official sacrifice of the state, and the matter involves grotesque, so I dare not submit to the minister of the state to obey it, and it is good for the patient's own relatives and servants to do it.

However, the battle is still very large.

The princes, county kings, Baylor, and Beizi in Beijing, as well as the envoys of the town and the auxiliary state, the town and the state of the town who are not included in the eight-point town, and the eight-point auxiliary prince are all present at the meeting.

Except for Prince Gong - he still stayed in Biyun Temple in Xiangshan.

The princes first sent their mothers and queen mothers to the Jingshan Shouhuang Palace in the north of the Forbidden City to pay respects.

The Shouhuang Hall enshrines the "holy faces" of the emperors below the Holy Ancestors, including Sejong, Gaozong, Renzong, Xuanzong, and Wenzong, which is to report the illness of the little emperor to the ancestors, thank the ancestors for their blessings, and ask the ancestors to rest assured.

After that, the queen mother returned to the palace, and the princes followed the "pox god Niangniang", starting from the Qin'an Palace, all the way to the south.

The Queen Mother and the Queen Mother are extremely courteous to the "Pox God Niangniang", and before the "Pox God Niangniang" statue, it is a full set of Queen Mother's honor guards, and after that, there are nine paper-tied "dragon boats" and countless paper-tied gold, silver and jade silks.

This long procession, all the way to drum and play, from north to south, through the Forbidden City, out of the noon gate, and then out of the Daqing Gate, stopped at the chessboard street in front of the Daqing Gate, where an altar has been prepared in advance, "dragon boat" and "gold, silver and jade silk" are all sent to the altar, and then raise fire to burn it, for a while, the flames are soaring, the fire is blazing.

Okay, the "pox god lady" even ate and took it, I think I should be satisfied.

However, what I didn't expect was that the south wind suddenly rose, and the princes who sent Niangniang stood on the north side of the altar, that is, downwind, and thick smoke rolled in, including Prince Xuan, one by one was smoked and coughed, and some people's tears and snot were smoked out, and they were embarrassed.

finally boiled to the ashes, and the faces of each one were not very good-looking.

Especially the alcohol king.

King Alcohol is not only uncomfortable to be smoked, he also has a layer of things that others do not have: on the night of entering the palace to "knock on the joy", in the Furong Pavilion in the back garden of Prince Xuan's Mansion in North Street, Chaonei, he "broke the earth" and proposed that the candidate for "succession" should be considered, and now, the emperor's nephew seems to be able to pass the "smallpox joy" safely, and if his remarks that night are leaked out - this is simply certain, falling into the ears of the emperor's nephew and the queen mother's sister-in-law, what will they think of themselves?

Alas, I was originally single-minded, for the sake of my ancestors! Now, isn't it in vain to be a villain? On the contrary, it is those saw-billed gourds who only care about their own position that take advantage of it!

Looking at the scene filled with fireworks, some people secretly muttered, how does this appearance of sending the "dragon boat" to the sky look a bit like ...... "ancestral send"?

This "ancestral send" does not mean "yangxing", but "sending mourning".

In the ritual of the national funeral, there is the link of "ancestral send-off", which does not refer to the funeral in general, but specifically refers to the burning of the imperial items of the Daxing Emperor during his lifetime - it means to ask the Daxing Emperor to take it "below" in case of emergency.

At the beginning of the collapse of the earth, when the hundred officials cried, they wanted to burn a small part of the imperial items of the Daxing Emperor during his lifetime, which was called "small loss of paper"; When it came to "Feng'an", Zigong entered the mausoleum, and then burned most of the royal items of Emperor Daxing during his lifetime, which is called "big loss of paper".

The relatives and nobles present and the older ones all participated in Xuanzong's funeral; Many of the younger ones have also participated in Wenzong's funeral, and they all feel that the scene of burning the "dragon boat" in front of them is quite similar to the "small paper loss" and "big paper loss".

Well, this doesn't seem to be very lucky!
