Volume 1 Chapter 30 Sacrifice 2
Queen Wu shook the colorful feathers on her head, the horn sounded again, the rhythm became a little thicker, and all the wizards and witches danced more and more wildly under the drive of Queen Wu, their hair flung wildly, Xin danced in front of her from time to time, and from time to time shouted two hi, hi and hi in the beat.
Xin also jumped up at Zizhao's invitation, but unfortunately she couldn't keep up with the rhythm, her clothes were too long, she was a little uncoordinated, and she almost fell down several times, but fortunately Zizhao stopped her waist and hugged her.
Suddenly, there was a loud muffled noise in the furnace in all directions, followed by the sound of bones cracking, and the music stopped abruptly, and the wizards immediately surrounded the furnace.
The ceremonial master of ceremonies said: "I respectfully ask the king to check the hexagram pattern"
Zizhao glanced at the cracks burning on the turtle shell in the fire and said, "Lonely has read"
The master of ceremonies said: "Please ask the representative of the clan to come forward to check the hexagram pattern."
The wizards made way for the people of the clan on the left, and the five clan representatives stepped forward, carefully looked at the cracks in the turtle shell, and the corners of their mouths showed a satisfied smile, nodded in unison, and slowly retreated.
The master of ceremonies said: "I invite the six subordinates of heaven and earth in spring, summer, autumn and winter to come forward to check the hexagram patterns."
Although Otsuka Zai was demoted to the title yesterday, he is still a heavenly chief in terms of honor, and today he is still ranked in front of the ministers.
The master of ceremonies said: "Please read the hexagram to all the wizards"
The wizards stepped forward again to check what they had just now, and nodded after making sure that it was correct.
The master of ceremonies said, "I respectfully ask the high priest to interpret the hexagram."
Queen Wu had been standing in front of the furnace on this side of the temple just now, and she had seen the process of the tortoise shell crack from auspicious to auspicious, even if she didn't want to believe it, she had to look up at Xin, this woman was actually the lucky star of the big business, and she reluctantly spit out a few thick syllables: "Tianqian, the lord of the country is prosperous"
"Tianqian, actually Tianqian" did not come forward to observe the other clan ministers, a famous invited to come here to watch the ceremony, have been emotionally raised, since ancient times, Tianqian hexagram is a hundred years of encounter, it represents the wealth of the country, the world is one, the supreme supreme, is it ......
Everyone cast their eyes one after another, looked at Xin a few more times, Xin pretended not to care, in fact, his heart was also jumping suddenly, oh my God, why did she draw such an eye-catching hexagram, she lowered her head shyly and didn't look at it, which made Zizhao laugh, and everyone knelt down in unison in Zizhao's laughter and said: "Congratulations to the king, congratulations to the lady"
"Flat" Zizhao is so happy, the range of action is exaggerated a lot, and it really feels like the king of the world!
The master of ceremonies said: "I respectfully invite the king to bring the queen and his wife into the temple to worship, except for the clan relatives, the rest of the people will disperse first, and when the lantern is on, the longevity hall will go to Yan"
The temple is not splendid, but it is also very solemn, there are four or five meters high painted fairy statues, a large one, several small ones, different forms, vivid images, but Xin does not know one, these are the deified characters of the road.
Under the statue of the god, there are many immortal lamps lit, worshiped under the big statue, and went to the side hall on the left side of the temple, which is full of the ancestors of the great merchants, and then came to the right side of the temple after turning over the ritual worship, here is also full of tablets, but they are all the tablets of the clan relatives who have not become kings and the positions of other wives and concubines of the royal family except the queen.
After another sacrifice and prayer, the great elder of the clan, who was the master of ceremonies who presided over the morning, personally engraved Xin's name, birth date, and status on the two-foot-tall treasure made of unknown materials in front of all the clan relatives......
Halfway through noon, all the sacrificial ceremonies were finally completed, and everyone was scattered, Xin in the name of a small solution, quietly checked the temple before and after, in fact, it just looks tall and majestic, the back is not wide, only a few wings for the usual sweepers, some courtyards in the back are self-sufficient, and then back, it is actually a cliff, this site is really amazing.
Xin took a sedan chair back to Yinhua Palace, as soon as he came back, he took off the thick, hard and foot-wrapping robe on his body, the person who gave the clothes, I don't know which one is lacking in virtue, there is itchy powder in this clothes, and Xin almost can't help but itch a few times, in the end, he was a person who has been a special soldier, he can't help but make a fool of himself, fortunately he didn't change his underwear, otherwise it's even worse, it seems that in this palace, there is a hidden sword and sword shadow!
Queen Wu, who was even more angry than Xin, went back and threw the things on the tea on the ground, and fiercely ordered: "Who prepared the clothes for Mrs. Xin today, beat them to death with sticks and threw them out to feed the dogs."
The unlucky medicine dispenser, Xin Du didn't know who it was, so he died!
Angry to angry, Queen Wu still has to go to the Longevity Hall to preside over the preparation of the evening Yan, although just with the mouth to tell something, but Queen Wu is also really tired, that place is smeared with medicinal oil, although some swelling has disappeared, but walking is still rubbing badly, plus standing in the morning for a morning, the waist heel is broken, on the surface of the serious, in fact, just to block the fatigue, this will gravity rely on the Qing twin and Caixia, before getting off the sedan chair.
In the hall of longevity, Queen Wu went to the back hall to rest, and everything was handed over to Mrs. Concubine and Mrs. Gui, these two ladies had a bad idea, Mingyue, who was bought by the two of them before, was married by the king, and the Qing Shuang, whom they hated, took office today, looked at Mrs. Concubine and Mrs. Gui with big eyes, and saw that the two of them were furious in their hearts.
Mrs. Yu held a face-covering fan in her hand, and said coquettishly: "Yo, it's the Qingtwin girl, Mingyue is married, and the Qingtwin girl can be regarded as having survived."
Mrs. Gui also walked over with a smile, stretched out her hand and pulled Qingluan and said, "In the future, the two of us will ask the girl to take care of her," and said, and the jade bracelet in her hand was smoothed to Qingshuang's hand.
Qing Shuang was very disgusted by the behavior of these two ladies in his heart, and he didn't want to offend the two masters publicly, so he took the bracelet half-pushed, and pretended to look up, and made a very fond appearance: "Then the slave and maid thanked the two ladies for rewarding, the two ladies rested first, and the slave and maid went to the room to see."
Seeing the back of Qingshuang in the distance, the two husbands smiled similarly, and said disdainfully in their hearts: "It's not all the way, what is the pretend."
As soon as the young twin passed the corner, he snorted lightly, these are two things, thinking that the beatings and scolding to her before could be leveled with a bracelet, and it was too self-righteous, so he casually rewarded this bracelet to the slave behind him: "Make a dowry for you!" ″
The slave was so happy that she thanked her repeatedly: "Thank you, girl, thank you."
The corners of Qingshuang's mouth slanted and said: "No thanks, help me keep an eye on those two old witches in the future, and half of the reward for this girl will be shared with you."
"Yes, slave Zhu'er, from now on it will be the girl's eyes"
Green Twins: ......
Night falls, from the palace to the hall of longevity, there are maids and attendants every few steps to pick up lanterns, the lights in the courtyard of the overlapping rooms make this overly simple palace become more vibrant, the endless crowd slowly enters, three or three by two side by side, all out of the noble style, there is nothing to look at or those girls of the family, the exquisite figure, walking up and down the ana, attracted the sons of the clan out of thin air to have a lot of expectations.
The longevity hall will be full of people, two people, from beginning to end, twelve for one road, three on the left and right, in the middle there is a long carpet on the open space that accommodates three roads, at a glance the end of the three steps is the throne of the king and the queen, because today Xin is the protagonist, so especially in the right of the king also added a seat to her, at this time several protagonists have not yet arrived, a group of guests are complimenting each other for each other, the court has not run a house for several years, many sons and girls are just grown up, The first time I dressed up this scene, I was very excited, and many people took advantage of this banquet to prepare to get married......
"The king has arrived, Queen Wu has arrived, Mrs. Xin has arrived", the attendant who sang the newspaper shouted three times without stopping, and the hall was instantly silent, and everyone stood up and knelt down again: "Meet the king, meet the queen, meet Mrs. Xin, the king Wannian, the queen Wan'an, Mrs. Wanfu!"
Xin took a seat under Zizhao's instructions, everyone returned to everyone, Xin quietly took a deep breath, she really didn't like this kind of occasion.
"Open the banquet" Zizhao sat domineeringly, waved his big hand, said a word to open the banquet, and listened to the attendant again: "Serve the wine, sing and dance"
A piece of music sounded fairy music, and the rhythm of the antique classical bronze bell sounded, so that Xin felt that her ears were enjoying extraordinarily, and couldn't help but put herself into it, and then looked at the "fairies" who came to dance, she finally knew what it meant to enjoy the emperor.
At the end of the dance, Zizhao raised his glass: "Please don't be formal, let go of eating and drinking, come, raise a glass together, wish the world peace, smooth wind and rain, and do a good job"
Xin also raised the wine glass, not the usual two-ear bowl, but the three-legged glass, only to see the following: two lines of centurions raised the lamp, eyebrows and eyes with a smile to the monarch, three calls for ten thousand years and a drink, heroic dry clouds enjoy peace"
Infected by the atmosphere, she also drank it all, Zizhao turned his head to look at her, and smiled happily.
After a round of drinking, I came up with a double sword dance, changed two rounds of eating and drinking, and said a few toasts, and the ladies of the clan are ready to dance one by one, taking this opportunity to show their talents, and hope to win the favor of nobles!
Xin accepted the congratulations of the courtiers from time to time, and from time to time was taken care of by Zhao, and was also congratulated by Mrs. Hui, and also received a smile from Queen Wu, and she laughed until her mouth was about to be smiling, thinking that Yan Hui was coming to an end, and she was really glad that she didn't make any big mistakes, so she heard someone call her.
She took a closer look, in the center of the carpet, there was a girl looking at her, but no matter how many oil lamps in this longevity hall were, it was not as good as modern electric lights, not to mention the distance, Xin saw her with a fairy bun, a tight green dance dress, a few colorful streamers in her hand, from a distance it looked like a fairy, the voice came out of her mouth faintly: "Mrs. Xin, the folk girl heard that the lady can be literary and martial, very much liked by the king, everyone is here today, can the lady be invited by the people's daughter, and the people's daughter compares?"
