After wearing the book, the Buddhist imperial concubine has spoiled again

Chapter 5 The feeling of being softly wrapped
"Yes." Huang Dechang knelt beside the prince and began to put on clean boots for the prince.

At this moment, everyone saw what kind of boots Jiang Meiren gave the prince.

They were a pair of dark-colored boots. Apart from the neat golden topstitching on the edge, there was no other embroidery, and the fabric was not the best.

For the concubines, the boots given by Jiang Meiren are as ordinary as she is.

In Huang Dechang's view, if the situation was not urgent, such boots were destined to be put into the warehouse to absorb ashes.

Even he doesn't like these boots, let alone His Highness.

After the family banquet is over, he will definitely replace it for His Highness!

When the prince was changing boots, everyone knelt down and looked down at the ground, not daring to look at the prince more.

It wasn't until the prince finished changing his boots that everyone slowly raised their heads.

When something like this happened at the dinner table, the prince was not in the mood to continue eating.

After changing his boots, Pei Xuanling lifted the corner of his robe and got up, ready to leave the table.

Just when he got up, he felt the proper feeling of the soles and tops of his feet being softly wrapped, and he couldn't help but pause slightly.

Xu Shi's boots were comfortable. When passing by Jiang Meiren, Pei Xuanling took a look at Jiang Meiren before leading everyone away.

The most important people left, and the concubines of the Eastern Palace also took a break from eating and went back to their respective residences.

**
In the days that followed, the prince was busy taking over the Ministry of Rites, often returning to the East Palace until late at night.

The Ministry of Rites is in charge of private schools, academies, Confucian temples, family affairs, and imperial examinations across the country.

As well as any major events encountered by the royal family and the court, the Ministry of Rites will choose auspicious days to handle them.

There are also vassals who are in charge of guest etiquette and reception of foreign guests when they communicate with other countries.

Then there is the matter of casting seals for emperors and civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.

At the beginning of the year, several countries and vassal kings wrote letters, saying that they would come to Dongliang to pay tribute.

The journey is long, counting the time, they will arrive one after another, and the etiquette department has to be busy preparing to receive foreign guests.

The key book of the Ministry of Rites is old and pedantic, and has the pride of a literati. Among the many princes, he only admires the sixth prince who is quite accomplished and talented in literature.

And has been recommending the six princes to the emperor to enter the Ministry of Rites.

Therefore, he was quite dissatisfied with the prince's temporary management of the Ministry of Rites.

He also refused to obey the prince's control, thinking that the prince got in by virtue of his status as the crown prince.

However, a prince is a prince after all.

Although he didn't dare to make things difficult openly, he just didn't cooperate well.

As a result, the prince took over the Ministry of Rituals and many things went wrong, so he was busy!
It has been busy until the Ching Ming Festival, and the royal family has to perform the "Tomb Sacrifice Ceremony".

The emperor wants to bring all the princes, princes and ministers to the imperial mausoleum to visit the tomb and worship the ancestors.

The prince is naturally among them.

Since the boots given by Jiang Meiren were quite comfortable, the prince still wore those comfortable boots when he left the palace.

The imperial mausoleum is in the outskirts of Beijing. After everyone arrived at the imperial mausoleum, they not only had to clean the mausoleum, worship their ancestors, but also offer sacrifices to heaven and earth.

After the sacrifice was over, Pei Xuanling took his subordinates to the tomb of "Empress Xiaohui".

Empress Xiaohui is the biological mother of the prince. After giving birth to the prince, she suffered from dystocia and died of illness that year.

For a big figure like "Empress Xiaohui", her tomb is not an ordinary stone tablet, but an underground palace.

Huang Dechang ordered people to arrange the tribute, and Pei Xuanling went down to the underground palace alone, while Huang Dechang and the guards stood guard outside.

Candles were lit in the underground palace, and various funerary objects were placed around.

In the middle is a rectangular coffin.

Pei Xuanling knelt in front of the coffin, worshiped and offered incense.

Just as he was offering incense, there was a sudden noise from under the underground palace, and even the stone bricks under his feet moved slightly.

Then there was a force coming from the sole of his left foot, Pei Xuanling raised his foot to see, a sharp dagger pierced out from the crack in the bricks of the underground palace.

But soon, the dagger was hidden in the crack of the ground again.

And the sole of his boot, which was split in half by the dagger, revealed a piece of silver!
Before Pei Xuanling could take a closer look at the boots that Jiang Meiren gave him, another floor tile made a strange sound.

The floor tiles were directly pulled away, revealing a unicorn arm with bulging veins, holding a sharp long knife in its palm.
