Chapter 660: Sacrifice to the Heavens

"Who's interested in your birthday?!" Xie Jinyu said angrily.

If the queen hadn't asked, would she have cared about her birthday?

It's best if she doesn't have a birthday in her life!

Su Jin was speechless.

This mother and daughter are wonderful.

was not interested in her birthday, and called her for questioning.

Not to mention that it's not happy.

Since he was not interested, Su Jin retired.

The face of the county lord of Nanzhang was gloomy.

Mother Zhao persuaded, "Don't be angry, the county lord must have recorded the birth date of the princess on the family tree." ”

"Go and check," Nanzhang County said.

Zhao's mother went to check it herself.

Because the genealogy is placed in the ancestral hall, you can't get in when you're idle, so you can only sneak in.

However, there is no mention of it in the genealogy.

This time, Zhao's mother was puzzled.

The queen suddenly became interested in the eight characters of the princess, and even the three lords were changed to concubines on the family tree, but the birth date of the princess was not recorded, which was really strange.

The prince shouldn't have made such a mistake.

Afraid of misleading the queen's affairs, the county lord of Nanzhang sent someone into the palace to report.

The news was not directly sent to the queen's ears, and when it came to Mama Zhou, she frowned and said, "It's just an approximate birthday, and I didn't ask about it?" ”

"The princess refuses to say, and there is no record in the genealogy," the maid said.

Mama Zhou's heart sank.

Concealing her birth date so deliberately, isn't she afraid that someone will guess her life experience?

After the maid left, Mama Zhou returned to the dormitory with heavy steps.

The palace maid is peeling lychees for the queen.

Looking at the lychee, Mama Zhou suddenly remembered that Concubine Yun was allergic to lychee.

……

Agarwood Xuan, backyard.

While having dinner, Su Jin went back to the inner room from the backyard.

As soon as I entered the house, I smelled the smell of food.

Looking at the dishes on the table, the corners of Su Jin's mouth twitched wildly.

Chickens, ducks, fish, meat, everything that flies in the sky and swims in the water.

Su Jin glared at Xie Jingchen.

said that she was weak and needed to make up for it, so she didn't have to make it up like this.

Xie Jingchen looked innocent, "This is not something I ordered the small kitchen to do." ”

"Then how do you make so many meat dishes?" Su Jin didn't believe it.

Xie Jingchen sat down and said, "The emperor will start fasting tomorrow, and after fasting for three days, he will lead hundreds of officials to pray for rain." ”

Even the emperor has to fast for three days, not to mention the mansion of a hundred officials.

It must be followed by fasting.

The small kitchen is afraid that the meat they bought will be broken, and they are also afraid that they will not eat meat for three days.

"Will it really rain for three days?" Su Jin was a little skeptical.

"Then it depends on how the father-in-law stalls," Xie Jingchen said.

"But it's too greasy to eat at night, and it's not easy to digest."

"Exercise more and digest it," Xie Jingchen said to Su Jin.

“……。”

If Xie Jingchen didn't say this, Su Jin would definitely eat the chicken legs.

He said that she was determined not to eat it.

Clip the chicken thigh back to him.

She eats vegetarian dishes!

But Su Jin is still too tender.

She is a vegetarian, and Xie Jingchen eats meat.

She doesn't need to exercise, Xie Jingchen needs it.

Su Jin, "....... ”

……

This time the fast changed from three days to five days.

And then seven days.

Nine days have passed in the blink of an eye.

In the past nine days, King Nan'an's life has not been easy.

was impeached by hundreds of officials, scolded by the emperor, and had to endure it.

On this day, the morning court.

As soon as the emperor sat on the dragon chair, Chongguo Gong made a challenge to King Nan'an, "King Nan'an, what is the reason why you can't sacrifice to the sky today?" ”

"Go, the bluestone ground on the way to the sacrifice to heaven has been pried," Nan'an Wang's voice was a little floating.

"How long will it take?" Chongguo Gong asked with a cold face.

"At least two days," the king of Nan'an had a big head.

Dongxiang Hou is also too ruthless.

Overnight, someone pried half a mile away.

Chongguo Gong couldn't bear it anymore, and it was not good for him to impeach the emperor for King Nan'an.

King Nan'an had nothing to refute.

was impeached every day, promised every day that he would not commit it again, and sent people to stare at it and let people be pried from the ground, which is unreasonable.

Chongguo Gong looked at the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, this matter will be handed over to the King of Nan'an, I'm afraid I don't know when I can pray for rain, the disaster is too serious, and the people can't afford to wait." ”

Dongxiang Hou looked at Chongguo Gongdao, "As far as I know, Chongguo Gong sent someone to help King Nan'an keep an eye on him last night, why did he ask someone to pry the ground?" ”

Chongguo Gong's face turned cold, "How did Dongxiang Hou know about this?!" ”

Dongxiang Hou said without blushing or panting, "Because I also sent someone." ”

"Halfway through, I found that Chongguo Gong sent a master, I thought there should be no more accidents, so I came back, but I didn't expect that under the double eyes of Nan'an Wangfu and Chongguo Gongfu, I also let people pry the ground, I don't think I can blame Nan'an Wang."

Well.

I found that the master of the Chongguo Mansion was staring at the altar and couldn't start.

The people from the Hou Mansion of Dongxiang came back, planning to ask the Hou Ye what he meant and then decide what to do, so he acted rashly and was caught and destroyed to worship the sky, which is a big crime.

was caught by the Duke of Chongguo, and even the emperor couldn't protect the Hou Ye, so they didn't dare to take it lightly.

As a result, on the way back, a flash of inspiration suddenly dawned, and it was not necessary to destroy the sacrifice to the sky, so he pried the ground.

The people of the Chongguo Mansion never dreamed that they would wait for the rabbit, and as a result, the rabbit changed its route halfway.

Chongguo Gong suspected that Dongxiang Hou was the troublemaker, but he had no evidence.

Anyway, the matter of sacrificing to the heavens can no longer be handed over to the king of Nan'an.

The Marquis of Dongxiang looked at the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, Chongguo Gong is doing his best to worship the sky, and if you leave this matter to him, you will definitely be able to sacrifice to the sky as soon as possible." ”

The emperor's forehead trembled.

If it had been raining six days ago, he wouldn't have known what he would have been scolded for.

Now it is only the king of Nan'an who is being scolded, not him.

This matter cannot be handed over to Chongguo Gong.

Of course, the errand that Dongxiang Hou Sai came over, Chongguo Gong would not take it.

This matter is obviously inseparable from Dongxiang Hou, in case he takes over and the altar is destroyed, the emperor should scold him for being incompetent.

"It's most appropriate to leave this matter to Dongxiang Hou!" Respect for justice.

"Then I'll leave it to Dongxiang Hou," the emperor said decisively.

"Command!"

Dongxiang Hou shouted.

Chongguogong's heart skipped a beat.

Finished.

Hit the plan.

It's a pity that it's too late to regret it.

knew that the last errand would fall into the hands of Dongxiang Hou, why didn't he agree earlier, and he could force the emperor to punish him on the grounds that it was unfavorable, but now it's good, King Nan'an was scolded for him, and he was fined for half a year.

After the next court, Chongguo Gong returned to the house with a belly of anger.

As soon as he changed his official uniform, the palace sent someone to spread the word, and the emperor wanted to sacrifice to the sky immediately.

Chongguo Gong, "....... ”

What the hell is going on?!

Well.

The Marquis of Dongxiang went out of the palace and prepared to go to the barracks, and Manager Lin was waiting for him at the gate of the palace.

Seeing Dongxiang Hou, Manager Lin whispered, "Master Hou, Mother Jiang's knee hurts." ”

Dongxiang Hou breathed a sigh of relief.

It's finally going to rain.

"How soon will it rain," asked Dongxianghou.

"Mother Jiang said that it will rain in the evening."

This is just an approximation, and Jiang's mother doesn't dare to guarantee it.

However, Jiang's mother has a sore knee, and as soon as it rains, Dongxianghou is sure.

If there was no such thing as praying for blessings, Dongxiang Hou would have waited quietly for the rain.

Since the people know that the emperor wants to sacrifice to the sky, and he has been mobilizing the people for so many days, it can't be in vain.

The Marquis of Dongxiang turned around and returned to the palace and asked the emperor to sacrifice to the sky.

Originally, this matter was entrusted to him, and he said that he would sacrifice to the sky on any day.

In this way, as soon as those ministers left the palace, they were summoned to the palace again.

Hasty.

Chongguo Gong couldn't see that the Dongxiang Marquis could do whatever he wanted, and led half of the courtiers to impeach the Dongxiang Marquis.

Dongxiang Hou said seriously, "If you really pray for rain sincerely, who cares if the altar is dilapidated and the road is dangerous?" ”

"Isn't Chongguo Gong the most anxious to sacrifice to the sky, set off immediately to worship the sky, Chongguo Gong should be the one who agrees with me the most, why do you impeach me instead?"

In a word, the blocked Chongguo Gong and the hundred officials had nothing to refute.

In this way, the emperor led hundreds of officials out of the palace to worship the sky.

The Great Qi Dynasty allowed the queen and the female dependents to participate, and it was inconvenient for the princess to go out of the house, so Su Jin, the princess, could not help but go.
