Although Emperor Feng Bingquan looks sick and weak, he is extremely energetic today, and next to him is the current Empress Chen Xi'er. Behind are the hundred officials and royal nobles headed by Feng Chenglong and Lin Xianrong.

It is worth noting that standing side by side with Feng Chenglong and Lin Xianrong, there are two others, a man and a woman, the man is extremely tall, and he combs his hair in a high bun, which is even more abrupt, like a goose, not only dressed richly, but also arrogant. The woman was graceful and richly dressed, and on her head she wore something like antlers, like a tree branch, and like a thorn. This woman is the poisonous mother. And that man is another demon king of the demon clan, ranked among the nine demon kings, and is respected by the demon clan as a half-father, and his cultivation is even higher than the poisonous mother, and he is the demon king of the Taiji realm.

Zuo Qing didn't know his half-father, but when he saw the poisonous mother, he was even more nervous, he had seen the poisonous mother's methods, if Zhao Gang hadn't appeared in time last time, I am afraid they would all have died at the hands of the poisonous mother.

But the arrow is on the string, it has to happen, the matter has come to this point, and you can only move forward.

The ceremony of sacrificing to the sky was presided over by Fan Xian, a waiter of the Ministry of Rites: "The first item, welcome the deer god!"

Emperor Feng Bingquan and Empress Chen Xi'er walked up to the holy platform together, Feng Bingquan took a burning sacred tree in the hands of the priest, and walked to the altar in the center of the sacred platform, there is a brazier on the platform, which is also a bonfire made of sacred wood, Feng Bingquan and Chen Xi'er together, with the fire of the sacred wood to light the bonfire, that is, the holy fire, according to legend, the deer god will feel called and come to the world again.

"The second item, worship the deer god!"

Feng Bingquan and Chen Xi'er knelt down in front of the sacred fire hand in hand, the shaman sent the jade and silk to the two of them, and the emperor and empress presented the jade silk together on the altar to express their gratitude and awe to the deer god.

At the same time, Feng Bingquan faithfully prayed to the deer god: "O great deer god, please continue to protect the health and prosperity of your subjects. ”

"The third item is to read the sacrificial text!"

The memorial is read by a shaman, and the general content of the text is the legend of the deer god, the establishment of the Zou Jie kingdom, and the prayer for the deer god to continue to bless the country and the people.

"Fourth, the prayer of all peoples!"

Then, under the guidance of the priest, the people around the altar, including the civil and military officials on the altar, began to bow three times and pray with all their hearts.

Zuo Qing saw that everyone was kneeling on the ground and bowing, so he had no choice but to slip away, squatting on the ground, bowing his head, and making a similar gesture of worship. Hou Liang and Lin Kaihan, like Zuo Qing, also ignored these, because Mi Li believed in the god of the Tianshan Mountains, and the deer god was also among the gods of the Tianshan Mountains, and Cui Can was originally a civilian of Zou Jieguo, and his belief in the deer god came from a young age, so Mi Li and Cui Can also worshiped with everyone.

Zuo Qing didn't care about the two of them, but looked at Hou Liang and Lin Kaihan, and asked in a low voice, "Is it about to work?"

Hou Liang smiled: "It's all ready!"

Zuo Qing took a long breath, but his heart still kept beating.

"The fifth item, drink blessings and receive gauntlets!"

Fan Xian, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, has already announced that the fifth item has been announced, and there is only one item left in the ceremony to send the deer god, and then the holy decree will be read, Zuo Qing listened to Fan Xian's voice, and his heart became more and more anxious.

The emperor and the empress drank the blessed wine and received the gizzard at the same time. Feng Bingquan looked at the burning life, looked at the people of Li under the holy platform, felt the comfort of the country's peace and prosperity, and drank the blessing wine deliciously. After Chen Xi'er also drank the blessing wine, she suddenly felt a heat in her heart, she thought it was the effect of the power of the wine, but then she was dizzy and almost fell, but fortunately Feng Bingquan held hands with her.

Feng Bingquan smiled and said, "Concubine Ai, why are you drunk?"

Chen Xi'er smiled: "The sacrificial blessing wine, given by the deer god, the concubine is naturally drunk." ”

Feng Bingquan was very happy after hearing this. But Chen Xi'er tried her best to hide the churning of her internal organs.

"Sixth, send the deer god. ”

This link is relatively simple, the shaman puts the jade silk and the sacrificial text into the holy fire to burn, the emperor and queen watch from the side, and when the burning is completed, the deer god link ends.

Zuo Qing concentrated on staring at Chen Xi'er offstage, and his heart became even more anxious. "Could it be that my rune drawing is inaccurate? Could it be that I underestimated Chen Xi'er's mana? Could it be that something is wrong?" Zuo Qing's forehead oozed beads of sweat.

On stage, the half-father suddenly said to the poisonous mother: "Spider, do you feel anything strange around here?"

The poisonous mother shook her head, "Nothing?"

The half-father said, "I'll go outside and have a look." With that, he left his seat, walked down the holy platform, and patrolled around the palace and the streets of Lucheng, and watched.

"The Sacrifice to Heaven Ceremony, over!" With Fan Xian's final announcement, the Sacrifice to Heaven Ceremony was finally over, and Emperor Feng Bingquan and Empress Chen Xi'er returned to their seats and sat down. But the officials and the people did not move, because they knew that there was one more important link, and most people were more concerned about this link.

Fan Xian, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, continued to preside: "Next, I will read the holy decree. ”

A palace person brought the holy decree, Fan Xian washed his hands, bowed, and then took the holy decree, opened it, and prepared to read it-

Fan Xian was stunned, a little speechless, he had been a waiter in the Ministry of Rites for many years, and he was at a loss at this time, he looked at Emperor Feng Bingquan, and said with his mouth: "Your Majesty, do you want to read it?"

Feng Bingquan seemed to understand his concerns, nodded slightly, and then grabbed Chen Xi'er's hand tightly, but suddenly felt a chill coming from Chen Xi'er's hand, and Feng Bingquan clenched it even more lovingly.

"Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said......" Fan Xian cleared his throat, word by word, and read the holy decree seriously, for fear of reading a wrong word, because the content on it was not something he could afford.

“...... I wish to take the throne, Zen, Jean, Yu, Huang, Hou, Chen, Xi, Er!" Reading this, Fan Xian's body was numb, and he could only try his best to make his tongue pronounce accurately.

But the audience has become a pot of porridge, hundreds of people, local officials, and the grassroots generals in the Lucheng army around Zuo Qing are all not calm, the throne is conceded, a shocking event, and it is Zen conceded to Chen Xi'er, both those who know and those who don't know are no longer stable, and the sound of discussion spreads in the crowd like a tide.

Not only the audience, but also the hundreds of officials and nobles on the stage couldn't sit still and began to discuss, but some people seemed to have expected it, including Prime Minister Lin Xianrong, his son Lin Yu, the commander of the Praetorian Guard, and Deputy General Bai Hao.

When Feng Chenglong heard the news, he was first startled, and then looked at the weak emperor Feng Bingquan and the beautiful empress Chen Xi'er, his eyes rolled and he was triumphant, as if he had already thought of a countermeasure and thought about which team to stand on.

When everyone focused on the content of the holy decree, no one noticed that Chen Xi'er had already begun to change, to be precise, after the Demon King's half-father left, Chen Xi'er was already restless.

The talisman on Feng Chenglong's waist was given to him by Zuo Qing, he has always worn it, and he has always been on the holy platform, and that talisman is like a key, a key to open the whole holy platform, the slightest vitality seems to be communicating with the ground, the vitality is getting stronger and stronger, ordinary people don't feel anything, but Chen Xi'er and several palace ladies on the stage reacted. But at first, a few Gong E felt a little unwell, and the foreman's worry about affecting the ceremony of worshipping the heavens immediately ordered someone to replace them, and after Gong E left the holy platform, the feeling of discomfort disappeared, and she did not notice anything unusual.

In addition, even the Demon King's half-father, who had cultivated to a high level, seemed to be aware of it, but he didn't know that there was a rune in the situation, but he only slightly felt a trace of vitality flowing around him, so he suspected that there was a master nearby, so he left to investigate.

It was precisely because of the departure of his half-father that the big talisman that Zuo Qing drew on the holy platform had an effect.

Fan Xian, the attendant of the Ministry of Rites, continued to read the rest of the decree.

"Empress, Empress, what's wrong with you?" Feng Bingquan shouted anxiously.

The emperor's actions shocked the officials, and they all got up and gathered around, and Chen Xi'er was already unconscious.

"Come on, the queen fainted. ”

"Maybe I'm suffering from heat stroke, go get mung bean soup. ”

The palace people began to be in full swing, and suddenly, Chen Xi'er's eyes opened, staring around, her eyes were completely devoid of coquettishness, and a kind of fierceness and terror shot out of her eyes, which frightened Feng Bingquan and Baiguan.

Then, Chen Xi'er struggled painfully on the ground, her body was steaming hot for a while, as if it was ignited, and then it was cold and biting, her skin was covered with frost, and Chen Xi'er slammed her fists on the ground, and her image was completely gone.

The hundreds of officials on the stage panicked, not knowing what to do, and the people in the audience stopped talking, as if they were collectively stunned, staring straight at Chen Xi'er on the holy platform.

In the silence, Lin Kaihan tentatively laughed awkwardly: "Ha, haha, look at the queen happy." ”

But the people around him didn't seem to buy it, and they were still staring at the stage.

Zuo Qing and the others were not in the mood to listen to Lin Kaihan's jokes, so they each clenched their blades and made preparations.
