Chapter 835
The annual ancestor worship event is one of the most important sacrifices of the Japanese royal family.

However, the superior does not participate in the ancestor worship activities every time, and only shows up during special years.

Except for the most authoritative superiors, all other important members of the Dongying royal family's direct lineage will participate in the annual ancestor worship event, which can be described as a huge scale.

There are different auspicious times for ancestor worship every year, which are calculated and drawn up by the royal priests.

The ancestor worship activities are held in the ancestral hall in the forbidden area behind the imperial city. The ancestral hall is also called the ancestral temple. It is the most important place of the Dongying royal family.

Before the ancestor worship, all the participating royal family members and ceremony officials, as well as the royal guards, the invited spectators, etc., all need to burn incense and lavender to be reverent and solemn.

This year's ancestor worship is a bit special, although it is not a special year, so the higher-ups will not participate. The core figures of the ancestor worship are just a few princes.

But this year's ancestor worship day coincided with a total solar eclipse.

And according to the time calculated by the imperial priest, the auspicious time is exactly a quarter of noon, which is the time when the total solar eclipse is complete...

Chen Tang caught this information keenly and fell into deep thought.

For him, today's royal ancestor worship is almost the only chance to get the royal inheritance, at least in the near future.

As an invited spectator, although he was able to enter the forbidden area behind the imperial city openly, he even got close to the stone tablet outside the ancestral hall.

But it is impossible that there are no Habayashi guards there. In broad daylight, even if Chen Tang has the code in his hand, it does not take much time to extract the royal inheritance from the stele. If he wants to avoid everyone's eyes and ears, he will be completely silent. It is absolutely impossible.

The moment of the total solar eclipse is the best time to make a move. Whether it can be successful or not is all about it! !

When these thoughts flashed through his mind, the ceremonial officers of the Dongying imperial family also arrived, there were only two of them, and the only one invited to watch the ceremony was Chen Tang, and even Nangong Aoyue was not allowed to accompany him.

"What's the big deal..."

Knowing that she couldn't go with Chen Tang, Nangong Aoyue curled her lips immediately, her face full of disdain, "Isn't it just a little Japanese royal family? Even if they invite me to go, I wouldn't mind it! "

She is the eldest daughter of the Nangong family, the top family in the Yuanwu world. She has the capital of arrogance, and she really doesn't take the Dongying royal family seriously.If she is willing, the whole clan will be mobilized, and it is not impossible to destroy the Dongpu royal family!
Everyone looked weird, but no one spoke. Chen Tang confessed a few words, then turned around and went to the imperial city with the ceremony officer...

When he arrived in the inner city, the scene changed. The annual ancestor worship was not a trivial matter. A grand ceremony was held in the inner city. When Chen Tang passed by with the ceremony officials, he even saw the figure of the quasi-imperial concubine Takeda Zhenyi in the crowd.

But she is only a quasi-imperial concubine, and she can only stop in the inner city, unable to enter the core place of ancestor worship, which is the forbidden area behind the mountain where the stele is located.

The two passed by each other, and with an eye contact, Chen Tang saw strong expectations and encouragement from Takeda Zhenyi's eyes. She knew that Chen Tang would never miss this opportunity, and he would definitely make a move.

But what the end result is, no one knows...

The forbidden area of ​​the back mountain, which is usually quiet and eerie, is particularly lively today.

Habayashi Guard almost has a post every three steps, and a sentry post every five steps. There are only a dozen or so spectators like Chen Tang. Waiting quietly in the viewing pavilion about [-] meters away.

Soon, members of the royal family arrived one after another, each followed by an attendant, holding a gift box, which contained their carefully prepared sacrifices.

Princess Shunzi and the second prince should have made an appointment, and they arrived at the same time. Behind them, there was also an attendant carrying a gift box, a man and a woman.

As they approached, the two also saw Chen Tang standing in the viewing pavilion, smiling and bowing his head as a greeting.

Such an honor made the other dozen or so spectators in the viewing pavilion a little envious. They had also heard about what happened in the Kyoto port last night. After all, they were all very prestigious figures in the Kyoto area.

To be able to gain the friendship of the second prince and Princess Shunzi at the same time is no small matter.

Especially since Chen Tang is so young, besides him, the youngest spectators are also close to their [-]s.

To be able to gain the recognition and friendship of the Japanese royal family at such a young age, and to be invited to be a spectator, the future is simply limitless.

It was for this reason that when the Second Prince and Princess Shunzi walked past and entered the ancestral temple, the dozen or so spectators exchanged glances with smiles on their faces, and they all wanted to chat with Chen Tang and take the opportunity to make friends.

It was at this time that the eldest prince arrived, and when he saw Chen Tang's complexion suddenly sank, he even stopped in his tracks when he passed the viewing pavilion, glared at him viciously, snorted coldly, and did not hide his unkindness .

A dozen or so spectators were so frightened that they all bowed their waists slightly, and immediately gave up the idea of ​​chatting with Chen Tang.

That night, they teamed up with Han Mo to fight against Han Mo, and the three deputy commanders who screamed at him were all outside the ancestral temple. The eighth stage is not to be underestimated.

When all the members of the royal family entered the ancestral hall and the auspicious time was approaching, two of the three deputy commanders also turned around and entered the ancestral hall. Only Yamamoto was left outside to lead the Habayashi guards to take charge of the external defense. Deputy Commander.

The spectators were also told at this time that they could leave the viewing pavilion and walk around at will. After two sticks of incense, the ancestor worship officially began...

Deputy Commander Yamamoto took the initiative to come over and chatted with Chen Tang familiarly. He was no stranger to him, and he was quite close.

Chen Tang glanced over the stele inadvertently, and saw several spectators gathered in front of the stele to comment, which made him feel itchy, but he could only hold back temporarily, waiting for the opportunity.

After two incense sticks, the sky darkened slightly, and the total solar eclipse began, and the sound of ritual and music sounded in the ancestral hall, and the ancestor worship of the Dongying royal family began at the same time!
The spectators returned to the ceremony pavilion one after another. Although Chen Tang was unwilling, he couldn't walk to the stele alone at this time, so he had no choice but to follow into the ceremony pavilion.

Time passed slowly, and this kind of ancestor worship generally took a long time and the process was complicated.

Unknowingly, the sky is getting darker and darker, and the process of total solar eclipse is slowly approaching.

It was almost time for a meal, when the scorching sun in the sky was about to be completely swallowed up, there was also a sudden change in the imperial ancestral hall ahead.

A shocking explosion sounded, and all the people in the viewing pavilion were stunned, stunned and stunned...
