Chapter 400O1 Taimiao sacrifices prisoners
The carnival parade takes place for two consecutive days, and the route of the parade is different every day. The transaction volume of all the shops in the Dumen area www.biquge.info Pen, Fun and Pavilion has more than doubled. The shopkeepers counted the money with a smile on their faces, and fantasized about the carnival bringing them more business.
On the third day, the carnival parade had to be suspended for a day due to a larger parade taking place in the Dumen district.
It was a cold and cloudy day, with a cold wind blowing and cracking the muscles and bones. The time is the 29th of February of Emperor Wei Ming.
A cage made entirely of brass and plated with real gold on the outside appeared on Duojiu Street in the Dumen district, shining yellow in the sun's rays. The golden cage was placed on a red-carpeted flatbed cart, pulled side by side by four tall and fat yellow horses, and drove out of the Golden Valley Garden, located in the northernmost part of the Dumen District, surrounded by 5,000 forbidden soldiers, and rolled through most of the streets of the Dumen District, looking in the direction of the Taimiao Temple in the south of the city.
The preciousness of this cage and the large number of guards fully illustrate the nobility and extraordinaryness of the identity of the people in the cage.
Tens of thousands of people from Dogan Province flocked to Dogan Avenue from all directions, either standing on both sides of the street to look, or pushing open windows upstairs to watch, or marching behind the procession, and some even climbed to the rooftop of the street to look down, vying to witness this spectacular spectacle that has attracted worldwide attention.
There was an old man with gray hair in the cage. Judging from the clothes on the old man's body, the old man looked like an emperor. However, anyone who looks at it knows that this emperor is definitely fake. As it really is.
The old man wore a fake crown made of wooden planks modeled after the crown of cupola, which was decorated with a few grains of rubble, and wore a fake dragon robe made of white prison cloth modeled after a dragon robe, without a dragon, not even a trace of pattern.
Seeing such an unusually funny outfit, there is no one who does not laugh.
In contrast to the precious gold cage, such shabby clothing looks extremely incongruous, with a strong irony.
The old man had a yellow and thin face, a wrinkled face, cloudy eyes, and a vacant look ahead, completely losing his former and supreme look.
And this golden cage seems to be tailor-made for him, just so that his head is just right to get stuck outside the cage, and his body and limbs are inside the cage, not a point higher, not a point lower.
The common people don't know this person, even if they are officials and soldiers. But everyone understands in their hearts that Fei Chong is not going to present the emperor to Marshal Jin today, so the person locked up in this cage must be the current emperor Wei Ming. But is he still the emperor?
Five thousand forbidden soldiers slowly moved forward around the golden cage, turning from Duojiu Avenue to Dijiu Street, and marching in the direction of Taimiao in the south of the city.
The common people also followed from afar, heading in the direction of Taimiao. They watched from afar, and chattered happily:
"Brother, is this the legendary emperor? I don't think it looks like it, huh? β
"Yes! But he's an emperor waiting to be beheaded! β
"Hurry up, wait a while and you will see the emperor in Taimiao!"
"The emperor is also going to be beheaded? Then we must go and see! I've never seen the emperor beheaded when I'm so big! β
"Don't say that you haven't seen it for so long since you've grown so big, even if it's been a thousand years, no one has seen it!"
"So, this is a big event that has not happened in a thousand years! Then we can't miss it! β
"Haha, a big event that has not been encountered in a thousand years has actually happened to us, does it mean that today is a good day?"
"It's not just a good day! It's going to be a good year too! β
Suddenly, Emperor Wei Ming, who was in the cage, raised his head to the sky and let out a long roar, his voice was hoarse and dull, as if a thunderclap came out of the water: "I am the true son of heaven!" Heaven does not destroy me, and no one can destroy me! β
When everyone heard Emperor Wei Ming's words, they all covered their mouths and laughed.
For many years, people believed in the divine authority of the monarch, believing that it was indeed as Emperor Wei Ming said, the emperor was the son of heaven, and ordinary people could not shake his position at all. But what we see and hear today shakes people's faith. They feel that the divine right of kings is not absolute. Otherwise, why would an emperor be locked in a cage and walked to the execution ground?
The bold man in the crowd replied softly: "You are locked in a cage, which means that God has abandoned you!" β
Emperor Wei Ming shouted a little frantically: "I am the son of heaven, and heaven will not abandon me!" β
When people saw that the forbidden soldiers did not react, they all became bold and laughed at the emperor in the past.
"Didn't you kill your son once? Your heavenly father will kill this son of yours too! β
"Not only did you kill your own son, but you also took over your own daughter-in-law!"
When Emperor Wei Ming heard this, his face changed and he closed his eyes! But no one noticed the subtle change in his face. Who wants to look at his face now!
People still twittered and mocked:
"Your Sangkook betrayed you!"
"The Great General has betrayed you too!"
"All the civil and military officials have betrayed you!"
"You've been abandoned by everyone!"
The temple is a large group of palace-like buildings with vermilion walls and blue tiles, consisting of a rooftop, a platform, a temple and a square, the rooftop platform is located on the east and west sides of the temple square, and the temple is directly north of the temple square.
The rooftop platform is the place where the emperor worships heaven and earth, and the temple is the place where the ancestors are worshipped, and the spirit tablets of the previous emperors of the country are enshrined in it.
When the golden cage was still slowly marching towards the Taimiao and far into the sight of the people on the Taimiao, Kim Zhenglei led the Tiantai and the platform of the Taimiao to solemnly and solemnly worship the gods of heaven and earth. Song Qi was also honored to be in it, wearing a gorgeous military uniform, dancing and bowing to Kim Jong-lei's movements, experiencing the solemnity of this moment.
When the golden cage entered the Taimiao Square, Kim Jong-lei went to the temple to worship the ancestors and ancestors.
The tablets of the ancestors and ancestors of the Emperor Wei Guo in the temple have long been thrown into which stinky ditch, and now the tablets of the ancestors of the Jin family are solemnly placed here.
Wearing gold armor, under the guidance of the master of ceremonies, Kim Jong-lei knelt down reverently, bowed three times and knelt nine times, and solemnly proclaimed to the temple with tears on his face: "Father and brother, I have avenged your great revenge, and you can rest in peace!" May your souls ascend to heaven soon. Bless my Jin family for generations to be safe and healthyγγγ β
When worshipping the temple, naturally only Kim Zhenglei entered alone, and Song Qi and the civil and military officials could only kneel and dance outside the temple with the command of the master of ceremonies. (To be continued.) )
