Chapter 49: In the Clouds

His main duty was to read the blessings for the coronation of the enthroned emperor, including the various ceremonies at the time of enthronement, such as the first and final offerings, which were presided over by the high priest, and all kinds of sacrificial ceremonies were presided over by the high priest. It can be said that if there is no high priest to preside over the coronation ceremony, then this emperor is not an orthodox emperor, like my father's coronation ceremony was presided over by the priest grandfather. After speaking, he glanced at Zhong Hui, "You know what the high priest is now, right?"

Zhong Hui nodded and said, "I understand a little, so how much power does this high priest have?"

Guan Yue shook her head, "Power?" I don't know, it seems that the high priest doesn't have any power, but the prestige of the priest's grandfather is very high, even if he doesn't have any power, no matter who it is, even the father and emperor have to salute when they see it, do you think this counts as power?"

Zhonghui nodded thoughtfully.

To put it bluntly, this high priest is like a spiritual symbol, although he has no rights, but he has potential influence, even the emperor has to be respectful to him, and it seems that he is also an elephant-legged figure, well, he has to hug it well. Zhong Hui thought in his heart.

"I'm curious, how did this high priest know about me, and I didn't do anything earth-shattering. Zhong Hui asked the doubts hidden in his heart.

Hearing this question, Guan Yue Chaozhong stuck out her tongue, "Of course I told the priest grandfather, otherwise who would know you." ”

As soon as Zhong Hui heard this, he exclaimed in his heart Sure enough, he should have thought that besides this little girl, who else would tell such a big figure about himself, but with his identity, I am afraid that there is no reason for such a big man to come to see him.

Thinking of this, Zhong Hui touched his arms and found a black pendant that had been found on a white bone in the Banlun Mountain Range, but he had been on his body since he came out of the Banlun Mountain Range, and they had no reason to know what was on him.

As soon as he thought of this, Zhong Hui's head was bigger, and he didn't think about it anymore, and when the time came, he just asked him directly when he saw the high priest.

Guan Yue saw Zhong Hui sitting there and beating his head with his hand, thinking that he was sick, so she asked him tentatively: "What's wrong with you?" Are you not feeling well, then why don't you go to see the priest grandfather another day, you have to take care of your body first." ”

Zhong Hui looked at her and said, "It's okay, there is nothing wrong with my body, I will go with you to see the high priest tomorrow, it just so happens that I also want to ask him something." ”

Guan Yue looked at Zhong Hui worriedly, and said: "Then don't hold on, pay attention to your body, Grandpa Priest only let me come out for half an hour, now the hour is coming, I have to go back, I will call you again tomorrow, you have to pay more attention to rest." ”

After speaking, Guan Yue stood up and walked outside step by step, Zhong Hui saw her like this, got up to send her out, he really didn't want to see that look of whether he was going to leave or not.

After Zhong Hui sent Guan Yue away, looking at the back of Guan Yue leaving, he suddenly remembered Guan Yue's expression just now, his eyes rolled, and he thought in his mind: Guan Yue's expression just now seemed to be concerned about me, if I kept pretending to be sick, would this girl not come to pester me? Well, this should be okay. Thinking of this, the corners of Zhong Hui's mouth rose slightly, and the evil spirit was fully revealed.

Early the next morning, Guan Yue took Zhong Hui to the palace, and as soon as he got out of the carriage, Zhong Hui couldn't help but be shocked by the grandeur of the palace, and sighed that it was really where the emperor lived, but it was different, just one word, big. Thinking of this, he suddenly asked Guan Yue next to him: "Didn't you go to see the high priest, why are we coming to the palace?"

"The High Priest lives in the palace. ”

Guan Yue ignored him, threw down a sentence, and walked towards the palace in a hurry, seeing her like this, Zhong Hui had to follow quickly. If you get lost, don't be taken for an assassin.

They wandered around the palace for a long time and came to a wooden house that did not fit in with their surroundings.

The wooden house is surrounded by flowers and plants, which is very quiet, and the overall layout is very simple, which constitutes a very contrasting visual vision with this magnificent palace.

Zhong Hui looked at the house and felt a sense of tranquility in his heart, as if a light breeze was blowing through his body, as if everything around him had slowed down.

Guan Yue, who was next to him, shook his little hand in front of his eyes and said, "Surprised, right? I was also very surprised when I first came here, and since then I have often come to play, this is where the priest and grandfather live, come with me." ”

After speaking, Guan Yue ran in, shouting as she ran: "Grandpa Priest, I brought you the person you wanted." ”

Zhong Hui followed Guan Yue, and on the stone table behind the cabin, he saw the high priest of the Central Chu Empire, this high priest was a gray-haired old man, dressed in plain clothes and white clothes, although there were many wrinkles on his face, but he looked very energetic and kept smiling.

Guan Yue was lying in the ear of the high priest and talking, and the high priest smiled and waved his hand to signal Guan Yue to leave. When Guan Yue passed by Zhong Hui, she pouted at Zhong Hui and ran away.

After Guan Yue left, the high priest spoke.

"You are the warrior from the other side of the Banlun Mountain Range that the moon girl said, come and sit down. ”

As soon as the high priest spoke, Zhong Hui felt very comfortable, there was nothing domineering, and there was no superiority, it was the tone of ordinary old man's conversation, very peaceful, plain, so that Zhong Hui was very comfortable.

He answered, and walked over and sat down on the stone bench.

"What's your name?" asked the archpriest.

"Juniors will be in the middle of the meeting. ”

"Well, it's really good, hero boy, haha. The priest looked at Zhong Hui and suddenly laughed, which made Zhong Hui a little inexplicable.

The High Priest saw Zhong Hui's doubts, "You must be very confused why I am seeing you, right?"

"This-the junior really doesn't know, I just arrived in Shangjing, I'm not familiar with everything here, and I haven't done anything special, it stands to reason that there is no need for the archpriest to see me, but the archpriest asked Her Royal Highness the princess to invite me personally, which makes the junior very puzzled. ”

"Haha, okay, I'll tell you later, now I want to ask you first, has Wen Dao seen you?" said the priest, and picked up a pot of tea on the stone table and drank it.

"You're talking about Wenxiang, we just met the day before yesterday. ”

When the high priest heard Zhong Hui say that Wen Dao had seen him, he had such an expression that Zhong Hui was in a fog, and he couldn't understand what tricks they were doing, and before he could think about it, the high priest began to speak again.
