The year-end festival has arrived.

The emperor decreed that all officials and relatives should go to the scene of the sacrifice to observe.

Fang Jue wanted to touch the fish, but he couldn't run away this time, because as the young master of the crown prince, he had to participate in part of the ceremony.

Fortunately, the prince has not yet been established, Fang Jue only needs to stand there, and there is no need to cooperate with the prince to do anything.

However, Rao is like this, and after most of the day, he still stiffened his waist.

"Young master, what is the use of this sacrifice to the sky, every year, every year there are disasters or military disasters everywhere."

On the carriage back, Dian Yi drove the horse and hummed: "I see, there is no heaven in this world, or God does not have mercy on the world at all, and it is better to worship God than to be benevolent." ”

Fang Jue rubbed his waist and said with a smile: "You are transparent." ”

"Sacrificing to the heavens, to put it bluntly, is to ask for comfort, so as not to let the people of the world talk about it, saying that Your Majesty does not respect heaven and earth, which leads to all kinds of disasters." Fang Jue shook his head.

The people's sentiment is the main reason for worshipping the sky.

The rulers of the feudal dynasty, don't you really know that there are no immortals in the world to bless the world?

They know, and it is true materialism, and they will not believe in the existence of immortals at all, otherwise they will not be so bold in doing things.

Believing that there is a God is for the people to believe, and they are just making a show of themselves.

If you really believe that there are gods three feet above your head, those nobles still dare to be so arrogant, and who dares to kill people and commit crimes?

Are you kidding.

The more daring and powerful the people, the more they disbelieve in immortals, and only use this legend to gild themselves and curb the excessive boldness of the people.

"The young master is right, I think this sacrifice is innocent and unnecessary, if I become the emperor, I will definitely cancel these inexplicable superfluous things." Norichi scoffed.

Fang Jue shook his head, knowing that this thing was bold: "You be quiet, don't bother me with it." ”

"Haha, what are you afraid of, if someone exposes it, he will be beheaded that night!" Dian Yi laughed, looking arrogant.

The people in the Emperor's Pavilion are somewhat contemptuous of imperial power.

From the bottom of their bones, this group of people has no reverence for imperial power.

This is also the reason why Fang Jue can quickly integrate in, they are all pragmatic and disrespectful of power.

Only people with such a mentality can dare to really do great things.

And Fang Jue's major event is not just as simple as helping Emperor Xia dominate the world.

"Young master, shall we go back to the village?" Out of Miyagi, Norichi asked.

Fang Jue paused: "Let's go to the Hanging Sword Division......"

"Oh."

……

In front of the Hanging Sword Division's Mansion, Fang Jue got off the sedan chair.

Dianyi rolled over and handed the reins of the carriage to the sword guard next to him.

The people of the Hanging Sword Division can identify the heroes of the capital, after all, they are the ones who supervise the hundred officials, and no one can recognize how to supervise?

A soldier stepped forward and took the carriage away.

Another person came: "The young master is coming, I don't know what is important, but I want to humble myself to tell the first lord?" ”

"No need, it's not business, don't disturb Xiao Shouzao." Fang Jue waved his hand.

The man was very clever and said, "Then, go and invite Lord Ye from your humble position?" ”

"No need, I'll go find her myself, I'm familiar with this place." Fang Jue said casually.

didn't help the soldiers of Nafu, said more, and walked in calmly with Dianyi.

"Yes, if you can bring the guards and weapons into my Hanging Sword Division's mansion, it's just your young master......" The soldiers smiled helplessly, and retreated to continue guarding the door.

Hanging Sword Division, Fang Jue has been here many times, and it is not false to say that he is familiar.

In the past few months, the Hanging Sword Division has not been renovated, and it is exactly the same as before, and according to the memory, Fang Jue went to Ye Hongyi's study.

"Who's coming?" It was still far away, so Ye Hongyi asked.

Fang Jue was silent and walked in with a smile.

"What is my brother doing?" Ye Hongyi heard the footsteps, quickly got up, walked over from the bookcase, and looked at Fang Jue with a smile.

Dianyi was very conscious, didn't follow up, and stayed outside the door.

"Brother, sit here."

Ye Hongyi pulled Fang Jue and pressed him to the chair he was sitting on.

As soon as I sat down, there was still some residual warmth, and it was not cold.

"You sit too." Fang Jue pointed to the stool on the side.

Ye Hongyi shook his head and said with a smile: "Recently, His Majesty sent an adult from the Ministry of Rites to teach me etiquette, and he said that in the future, at home, my brother will not be able to sit when he sits, and he will have to stand with him." ”

Fang Jue rolled his eyes: "My family is not the Ministry of Rites, don't care about these vain, you can talk about etiquette in front of Your Majesty, and you can forget what the Ministry of Rites taught you." ”

"You and I should be sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes, just do whatever you want, you don't have to think about whether you have crossed the rules everywhere, it's too tiring to live."

"Is my brother serious?" Ye Hongyi's eyes lit up, she just deliberately said this to show that she was willing to restrain her temperament after getting married and would not be pampered.

Unexpectedly, Fang Jue didn't make any requirements for her at all.

It can even be more casual than in the Hanging Sword Division.

Fang Jue nodded: "Traditional etiquette is to suppress the stubborn part of human nature, let people know books and etiquette, so as to reduce friction between people. ”

"But in my opinion, this also suppresses nature, as long as you know when you should properly restrain it, if you are suppressed like this all your life...... Life is not happy, so what do you do with these etiquettes? ”

"My brother is really sensible, and his insights are extraordinary." Ye Hongyi pursed her lips and smiled.

Fang Jue looked at her, looked at her, and frowned slightly: "You...... Seems to have lost weight? ”

Ye Hongyi nodded, like a chicken pecking rice, turned around and said ostentatiously: "Your Majesty gave the marriage, the Ministry of Rites prepared a dress, and tried the sample clothes for me, saying that I am a little fat, and I need to be thinner to wear it." So, I've been on a diet these days, and it's working a little, brother, take a look......"

Hearing this, Fang Jue felt a little ridiculous:

"The clothes don't fit, you don't change the clothes, but you want someone to adapt the clothes?"

"What's the reasoning?"

"Huh?" Ye Hongyi glared and was in a trance, he didn't expect Fang Jue to say this.

Fang Jue said coldly: "Don't shrink your food, I will tell the Ministry of Rites to let them make clothes according to your figure, and don't use those past stock styles to fool people." ”

"Huh?"

Ye Hongyi said: "However, everyone is like this, the wedding dress cannot be easily changed, it is not good and unlucky." ”

"Don't be fooled by the people in the Ministry of Rites, they just want to be lazy, and besides, what's so nice about being thin into a bamboo pole, don't talk about hurting your body...... Anyway, listen to me, eat as much as you want, as long as you don't overeat, it's fine. ”

Fang Jue: "If the Ministry of Rites doesn't listen, I'll go there myself and talk to Lin Shangshu." ”

"Don't ......" Ye Hongyi couldn't cry or laugh, "It's not a big deal, and it's not a grievance, why make a fuss like this." ”

Although he said this, Ye Hongyi was not a child, so how could he not hear the relationship and maintenance in Fang Jue's words.

The heart is always sweet.

"Hongyi, you have to remember, I don't need you to wronged yourself, if you can't even marry happily, then what kind of marriage will it be?"

"Anyone who uses such a reason to persuade you must be careful that he does not have a backache when he is standing and talking."

"Be my wife, you don't need to have the slightest grievance." Fang Jueyun said lightly.

Listening to Ye Hongyi's ears, he felt very domineering.

"Hmm...... I understand. Ye Hongyi suddenly felt that he was really moved, such a man, I am afraid that I can't find a second one in the world.

Everyone else can't wait to crush the woman to death with etiquette to show his high status as the master.

Brother...... It's a bit peculiar.

"That's right...... What was the reason why my brother came today? Ye Hongyi suddenly remembered that Fang Jue hadn't said anything when he came in.

If nothing happens, it is best for the two not to meet at this time, so as not to spread some bad rumors.

"Oh...... The scolding department was happy, but forgot to get down to business. Fang Jue chuckled.

"Haha......" Ye Hongyi couldn't help but laugh and covered half of her face.

Fang Jue said: "Do you know your life experience? ”

Ye Hongyi's smile stopped abruptly, and she was suddenly stunned.

"Brother......" she muttered.

"I'm talking about your true background." Fang Jue whispered.

Ye Hongyi looked out of the door and saw that Dianyi had already closed the door.

"Brother, you...... How do you know? Ye Hongyi was shocked, with incredulity.

Fang Jue chuckled: "Don't forget, what does the Emperor Pavilion do, the old pavilion master regards me as a nephew, so naturally he wants to check everything about you." ”

"I ...... Brother, Hongyi didn't mean to hide it......" Ye Hongyi was a little weak-hearted, hanging his head, like a child who had done something wrong.

Fang Jue smiled and shook his head: "After all, it is about the eldest princess of Leyang, it is a secret of the royal family, I can understand it if you don't say it, I just want you to know." ”

"But it seems you already knew?"

Ye Hongyi is not Ye Xuanfeng's granddaughter.

She is the emperor's cousin and the illegitimate daughter of the eldest princess of Leyang...... The reason why this matter is secret is because this eldest princess of Leyang was not married and died suddenly when she was very young.

The fundamental reason is that the eldest princess of Leyang and her own guards secretly communicated with each other, and died in childbirth at the same time as giving birth to Ye Hongyi.

This is a royal scandal, so naturally it is impossible to leak it out, and the relevant people and others are either imprisoned or disposed of.

Ye Hongyi nodded cautiously: "Yes, the noble concubine Niangniang summoned me to tell me, and it was Your Majesty's approval...... I was going to tell my brother too, but I didn't have time yet. ”

She told Fang Jue that she also knew about it, and she didn't mean to hide it.

"According to this, your identity should have been a county lord in the first place," Fang Jue said with a smile, "It's that I've climbed high." ”

"What does my brother say, with my brother's talent, don't say that it is my disgraceful royal family, even if it is a real princess, she is worthy of it." Ye Hongyi said embarrassedly, being told that her identity was exposed, but she felt inferior to others.

After all, in this world, illegitimate children born before marriage are always inferior.

It's no wonder that Ye Hongyi was handed over to Ye Guogong to raise, if she stayed in the royal family, how would she deal with herself when she grew up?

"Brother...... Will you dislike me for being an illegitimate ......" Ye Hongyi pouted.

Fang Jue smiled: "Let's tell each other a secret, in fact, I am also an illegitimate child." ”

"Huh?"

Ye Hongyi was shocked, and immediately snorted softly: "Brother, don't defile yourself to comfort me." ”

"Haha, I don't believe it." Fang Jue laughed a few times, the trust between people is really getting lower and lower, to be honest, no one is willing to believe it.
