Chapter 408: Customs
Sacrifice? Feng Yunxi looked puzzled, what kind of sacrifice?
"Sacrifice is a consistent custom in the Eastern Continent, and for such a major event as the princess's return to the dynasty, sacrifices should be held to worship the gods." Grandma Sun said on the side.
"As Mama Sun said, and this sacrifice can also calm the rumors, make the Eastern Continent stable, and hope that the princess can participate." Mu Yichen spoke very earnestly.
"Rumors?" What's been rumored lately? Feng Yunxi frowned slightly, looking at Mu Yichen.
"It's not a big deal, it's just that someone with a heart deliberately slandered and smeared the palace and blackmailed the Son of Heaven to order the princes, wanting to train the princess into a puppet." Mu Yichen fanned the folding fan and said.
"Puppet?" Feng Yunxi felt unpleasant when he heard it, if he wanted to be a puppet, Mu Yichen didn't have to go to Dongchen for so many years, just find someone to be a puppet.
Feng Yunxi knew that Mu Yichen wanted to crush the rumors with facts, so he agreed: "I will participate when the time comes." ”
Mu Yichen nodded and stood up, with Grandma Sun here, it was inconvenient for him to say or do anything.
After saluting, he left the room.
Feng Yunxi stretched out his hand to look at the Xuan Yu bead on his wrist, and a thought in his heart gradually became firm.
Three days later
With the unanimous consent of the courtiers, the sacrificial ceremony is now here.
Feng Yunxi changed into the purple dress again, sat on the sedan chair, Mu Yichen followed on one side on a horse, and behind him were many officials in important positions.
The people of Shengjing all gathered on the streets, wanting to see the true face of Feng Yunxi.
After all, except for the people who saw them at the gate of the Drunken Immortal Building that day, there were still a few people who saw them, so Feng Yunxi, the princess, was actually still a mystery in the hearts of the people of Shengjing.
Feng Yunxi sat on the sedan chair, the sedan chair was covered with light veils, and when the breeze blew, she could see the scene outside.
and to hear the voices of the people.
"This is our princess, it doesn't look like she was threatened by the prince of Chu?" A young man touched the back of his head and wondered.
"You still believe that rumor, let me tell you, I have relatives who are on an errand in the palace, and I heard him say that the princess is a guest in the palace!" Passerby A said.
"That is, the sacrifice is the grandest event in our Eastern Continent, the princess has only been back for a few days, and the prince will immediately hold a sacrifice, which is enough to see!" Passerby B stubble.
……
Feng Yunxi sat on the sedan chair, listening to the discussion of the people outside, and knew that this sacrifice had been successful for most of it.
The Zhaojue Temple of worship is not far from the city, and when they leave the city, there are not many people, only the accompanying officials.
"There is still a quarter of an hour before the Zhaojue Temple, you can rest first." Mu Yichen rode on the side of the sedan chair and whispered to Feng Yunxi.
There are many cumbersome rituals for the sacrifice, and Grandma Sun has been teaching Xi'er about the things that need to be paid attention to in the sacrifice for the past few days, and she has not rested for several days.
With pity in his eyes, Mu Yichen looked at Feng Yunxi in the sedan chair.
Feng Yunxi was already a little sleepy, so he adjusted his sitting posture and whispered, "Okay, remember to call me when you arrive." ”
She sat up straight and gradually closed her eyes, which was not a long time, but it was still possible to close her eyes and recuperate.
From a distance, Feng Yunxi was still sitting upright, but when she looked closer, she was actually pretending to sleep.
Seeing this, Mu Yichen has been riding his horse on the side of Feng Yunxi, quietly waiting.
