Chapter 39: The Ceremony of Worshipping the Heavens

There are many things to go through in life, and if you don't go through so many things, you will never know what you really want. Only after experiencing and feeling will you understand: Ah! This is what I really need.

Zhou Shaoan thought that he would never return to this palace again, but after going around in circles, he returned to the original point. Fate, how wonderful!

When Zhou Shaoan was in the palace before, because of the special situation of the imperial court at that time, he had no way to come out and wander around.

Therefore, this time it can be said that Zhou Shaoan came to Yuzhou in the real sense, and visited this imperial city that has stood for thousands of years from the perspective of a common person at the foot of the imperial city.

I don't know if it's because Yuzhou is still a state city under the management of the imperial power at this time, or whatever, this city gives Zhou Shaoan a feeling closer to the world in his impression.

After being questioned by the guards at the city gates, walk into the imperial city. Zhou Shao'an didn't see the immortal cultivators flying everywhere in the other state capitals.

On the streets, people walked back and forth, the cries of vendors came and went, and the bad people who maintained order had short sticks stuck in their waists and stared at the faces of the passing people with fierce looks.

It seems that the sight of the people in other state capitals being killed at will like ants seems to be just Zhou Shaoan's illusion.

Here Zhou Shaoan saw the most ferocious scene, and it was just a thief with poor skills who was found by bad people, and he was pulled to the back and beaten up. Hawkers who occupy the street at will are just being chased around by bad people.

The entire imperial city of Yuzhou is in the direction of gossip, which is divided into eight square markets. In addition to the Great Zhou Palace, which occupies the most central part of the entire Yuzhou City, there are four city gates in the southeast, northwest and northwest, and each gate is divided into four residential areas near each gate.

The residence of the imperial court officials in the Eastern District, the entire Eastern District, from the residences of various imperial relatives and relatives, to the temporary residences of various local officials who went to Beijing to report on their work, were arranged here. Including Zhou Shao'an's Prince Rui's mansion, it's just that he didn't live in it before.

When the west gate goes out, most of the people near the imperial city live along here, which is also the guarantee of the safety of the entire imperial city.

As for the north and south districts, where merchants and workers gathered, the imperial court always did not pay much attention to merchants and craftsmen, so the north and south districts were weaker than the east and west districts.

Zhou Shao'an spent three days turning around the entire imperial city, and what he learned was roughly similar to the memory of the original owner of this body.

Just when Zhou Shao'an had just entered the city, Zhou Jing in the palace had already told Empress Weiyang the news of Zhou Shao'an's entry into the imperial city.

"Great, Brother Wang is still alive, I know that Brother Wang will definitely be fine. How is it, where is Brother Wang now?Have you contacted him?" Zhou Weiyang asked Zhou Jing after being excited.

"Well, His Royal Highness seems to be wary. Without His Majesty's order, his subordinates did not dare to bubble up. After saying that, what happened in Jingzhou City was told to Zhou Weiyang in 1510.

With a "snap", the table in front of Zhou Weiyang was smashed by her palm.

"It's too much to deceive people, Yuyangzi, an old dog, when I named him the shepherd of Gunzhou, it was he who openly rejected me. blatantly showed no mercy, and this time he dealt with Brother Wang like this. ”

"Your Majesty is angry, this thief is indeed hateful. However, the top priority is not to take back Prince Rui first? After all, he has been abolished by Yuyangzi and cultivated. Zhou Jing saw that Her Majesty the Empress was so angry, and hurriedly opened her mouth to persuade her.

But she knew that Zhou Shao'an had come all the way. has been silently cultivating the body of the "Canglan Secret Spectrum" transformed by the "Yellow Emperor's Inner Scripture", and the cultivation speed is extremely fast, along the way, Zhou Shaoan hired a carriage during the day, sat on the car to practice, and stayed in the inn at night to practice.

At present, after his continuous efforts, he has returned to the early stage of foundation building. And because he was directly cultivating the "Canglan Secret Spectrum" this time, his cultivation spiritual power was already even stronger than that of the ordinary mid-stage foundation building.

"Yes, the top priority at the moment is to take back Brother Wang, otherwise he will not be cultivating alone. It's dangerous outside. And five days later is the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony, and before the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony begins, you must find Brother Wang. Looking at the night outside the window, Zhou Weiyang said firmly.

So the secret guards inside and outside the imperial city were mobilized, but no matter how the secret guards searched, they never found Zhou Shaoan. Seeing that the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony was getting closer and closer, Zhou Weiyang even gave a death order, and he had to dig three feet into the ground to find Zhou Shaoan before the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony.

So where is our Zhou Shao'an at this time?

Originally. After entering the city that day, Xiang Yu reminded himself in the group that he was being followed, but he didn't know who was being followed.

So Zhou Shaoan began to suspend his cultivation, pretending to be an ordinary person, and blending in with the crowd. The most dangerous place is the safest place, Zhou Shao'an took advantage of this factor, found an inn to live in the imperial city, went out to observe the construction of the imperial city during the day, and came back at night to discuss with the emperors whether the construction of the imperial city was reasonable or not.

Just when there were still three days before the "Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony", everyone in the entire imperial city moved. The court officials and the vendors who set up stalls have all taken action. They all cleaned their quarters and kept them spotless.

Red lanterns are hung on the streets of the entire Imperial City, and when lit at night, the entire Imperial City will be illuminated by brilliant and dazzling lights as if it were day.

Zhou Shaoan remembered from his memory that today is the 1,200th anniversary of the establishment of the Great Zhou Empire, and every year at this time, a "Sacrifice to the Heavens" will be held to worship the ancestral temple.

On the one hand, it is used to commemorate the great talent of the founding ancestor, and on the other hand, it is also to take this opportunity to let local officials come to the imperial city to report on their work and find out their strength.

When there was still one day left in the festival, the petty officials from various places had already filled the eastern district. Zhou Shaoan followed in unconsciously, hiding among a group of petty officials, listening to them sigh at the current situation.

"Hey, hey, what's going on over there?" just as Zhou Shao'an followed this group of officials the size of sesame mung beans around. A voice came from the side and asked Zhou Shaoan.

Zhou Shaoan looked back and was happy, he was actually a fat man again, this person was about two as fat as himself, looking at him even if he was fat like this, he was still eating seastuffs in his mouth, Zhou Shaoan was really worried about his stomach.

"Haha, little brother smiled, my biggest problem is greed. Look at the little brother, you are so young that you can be with my generation, but it is really terrifying. As soon as the fat man came up, he laughed at himself and praised Zhou Shaoan by the way.

After all, Zhou Shaoan had never experienced these sycophants, and the first time he heard it, in order not to show his stuff, he could only learn what he saw in the book in his previous life and say: "It's over, it's over." Our predecessors are the role models for those of us who come after us to learn. ”
