The temple of the Hui Dynasty is at the foot of the Heng Mountain in Xujing, and the imperial tombs of the Hui Dynasty were also built here. Worship the sky and pray for rain are here, the emperor brings the children of the grandmaster, civil and military officials, and asks for the blessing of the ancestors of the heavens, and prays for peace in the Hui Dynasty. This state banquet is an opportunity for all countries to come to the court, to demonstrate the strength of the Hui Dynasty, and to serve all over the world, and it is also an opportunity to establish good diplomatic relations.

The temple is towering, the floors are high, the green pine brushes the threshold, and the jade fence is around.

The main gate of the temple was opened, the emperor and queen took the hundred officials to walk the right way, and Su Bei Kite and Mrs. Yin and other women who had ordered the lord to get off the car and walk the side corridor together. Eight colorful cranes frame dragon pattern drums shook the sky, yellow flags hunted on both sides of the righteous road, the southeast of the imperial dome burned calves, the southwest hanging sky lanterns, and the smoke and clouds were ethereal.

The imperial altar is specially used to worship the sky, and no houses are built on the platform, and the sacrifice is made to the air, which is called "dew sacrifice". The furnishings of the festival are exquisite, the offerings are abundant, and the rules are strict. There are seven groups of gods at the altar, and each group of gods is made of azure satin to form a temporary shrine. The north side of the upper circle stone is set up on the front of the main seat - the tablet of the emperor god, and its god is in the shape of a polygonal cone. The east and west sides of the second layer of the altar are subordinate - the sun, moon, stars, clouds, rain, wind and thunder tablets, and the gods are rectangular; In front of the shrine, there are a large number of offerings such as jade, silk, whole cattle, whole sheep, whole pigs, wine, fruits, and dishes. There are more than 700 vessels used for sacrificial offerings and various ritual utensils alone. The south side of the upper circle stone is set up to congratulate the case, and the emperor's worship seat is located in the south of the upper and middle two platforms. On the east and west sides of the south steps of the imperial altar, there are 16 kinds of chimes, chimes, bells, bells, etc., and more than 60 pieces of musical instruments are composed of Zhonghe Shao music, which are arranged neatly, solemn and magnificent.

The emperor has to complete nine steps, such as welcoming the emperor god, laying jade silk, entering the ceremony, making the first gift, making the second gift, offering the final gift, withdrawing the food, sending the emperor god, and looking at the fire, the process is lengthy and the etiquette is complicated.

The northern kite is on the back side, and can only follow the blessing and worship the position, kneel to be blessed, receive the blessing, bow three times, return to the worship position, and perform three kneels and nine bows. Wait for the emperor and queen to watch the burning of sacrifices, play the "chapter of Youping", and finally the Taihe bell rings, before you can drive back to the palace.

Su Bei Kite was wearing a heavy dress, the crown on her head pressed her neck sore, solemn and dignified all the way, and she was relieved when she returned to the carriage, and Pei'er hurriedly came up to rub her shoulders.

As the sun set in the west as she approached the palace, she straightened her clothes, stepped out of the carriage, and walked towards Madame Silver.

Suddenly, I heard someone behind me laughing. Su Beiyuan secretly thought to himself, I don't know who is so rude on this occasion, and he is joking here. She looked back at the person who was laughing, this person was still wearing a thick robe on such a midsummer day, the collar and cuffs were all sewn with white tiger skin, light blonde hair was full of braids, an obsidian the size of an egg on his head, a high nose bridge, wheat-colored skin, light brown eyes as sharp as an eagle's falcon, sword eyebrows were raised, a dagger inlaid with rubies was pinned to his waist, and the iron armor between his arms was clanging, he was like a wild wolf hunting beasts on Fengyuan Mountain, wild and uninhibited, swallowing the prosperity and wealth of Xujing City, and he was disdainful and ridiculed everywhere he looked.

"King Yan Xu, please hand over the dagger weapon at your waist to the slave with the general, and return it all after the state banquet." The two officers standing beside the man saluted him.

It turned out to be Da Haner, the king of Yanxu in Shuobei, the second son of Hun Shan Yu, and the lord of Yanxu in Shuobei. There are six divisions in Shuobei, except for the most powerful Shuofeng division in the hands of Hun Evil Shan Yu, the remaining five are led by the son and prince of Hun Evil Shan Yu.

Da Haner took off the dagger, shook it provocatively in front of the official, slowly put it on the tray held by the official, and smiled contemptuously: "With so many of you present, are you still afraid that the two of us can assassinate the emperor of your Great Hui Dynasty?" ”

The official didn't dare to say more, so he had to say: "This is my rule for entering the palace, and I have offended a lot." ”

Dahaner didn't pay attention to the official anymore, and the dark-skinned subordinate beside him also snorted coldly, took off the scimitar, and put it heavily in the tray, and the officer holding the tray was crushed.

At this time, all the ladies of the decree got out of the carriage and prepared to enter the palace.
