next morning.

Early the next morning, the sky was still dark and the fog was thick, but everyone had already got up and walked towards the moon-watching platform on the top of the mountain.

The guards lit the torches, one post at three steps and one whistle at five steps, illuminating the way up the mountain.

Emperor Xuanwu led the empress and walked in front of the crowd, followed by all the princes, and all civil and military officials followed behind.

Because of the fog, I couldn't see any scenery along the way, I just felt foggy, like a fairyland.

Wen Moyan walked beside Shuang Feichen, looking into the crowd from time to time.

Seeing this, Shuang Feichen wondered, "What's wrong?"

Wen Moyan responded in a low voice: "Feng Yuli is gone."

That guy came all the way with them in a carriage, and after arriving at the palace last night, he suddenly disappeared, and he didn't know where he went.

I haven't seen anyone until today.

This is a heaven sacrifice ceremony presided over by His Majesty, Wen Moyan did not want Feng Yuli to have any bad ending.

Shuang Feichen was very calm, and comforted him: "Let him go. Although he is a bit deviant, he seems to be a well-measured person, so don't worry."

Wen Moyan nodded and continued walking up the mountain.

When we arrived at the moon-watching platform on the top of the mountain, the sky was still dark.

Shuang Feichen took Wen Moyan to a small courtyard in a bamboo forest. In the guest room here were the clothes that the two of them were going to wear today.

Wen Moyan didn't understand at first, why didn't he just change his clothes at the foot of the mountain and come up again.

Only after the servants waited on her to put on the sixteen-story princess dress did she realize that it was so heavy!
Oh my god, this tiara alone has already hurt her cervical spine.

On the other side, Shuang Feichen, who had already changed his clothes, stepped forward. Seeing Wen Moyan, who was frowning, he smiled and comforted him: "There are seven, seven and forty-nine types of formal attire for the princess. The ancestor worship is the most important among them." It's tedious and the heaviest set."

Wen Moyan didn't dare to bow her head easily, she was worried that she would be knocked down by the hair crown on her head.

She looked at the graceful and luxurious clothes in the bronze mirror, and asked, "The clothes and jewelry are made so heavy, just to make it inconvenient for people to walk around casually, so that they can be as stable as old dogs during the sacrificial ceremony."

"Huh?" Shuang Feichen raised his eyebrows and couldn't help laughing: "You girl, you talk very interestingly. What is like licking a dog and being as stable as an old dog? You like dogs so much?"

Wen Moyan smiled awkwardly and didn't explain much.

Shuang Feichen stretched out his hand towards her and said, "Let's go."

Wen Moyan looked at it, pursed her lips and smiled, and slowly hit his big hand with her little hand.

The husband and wife went away hand in hand.

……

The moon-watching platform is located on the top of the mountain, which is a wide circular space.

However, this is not the highest point of Wangyue Mountain.

Walk through the moon-watching platform and walk to the top of the eastern mountain, where there is also a sacrificial platform.

Waiting for the emperor and queen to go to the sacrificial altar and climb up to worship the ancestors.

Others will line up and fight on the moon-watching platform.

After everyone listened to the speech of offering sacrifices to the heavens, they had to salute. The whole procedure would take half an hour at the fastest and an hour at the slowest.

It is not easy to wear such cumbersome clothes and such a heavy crown.

When Shuang Feichen brought Wen Moyan to the moon-watching platform, everyone was already standing there.

Because men and women stand separately, Shuang Feichen cannot accompany Wen Moyan.

Wen Moyan can only stand with the concubines and other concubines in the harem.

After taking her to the designated place, Shuang Feichen told her in a low voice: "After offering sacrifices to the heavens, the emperor will let you come forward to listen to the seal, and you can just thank you directly. No need to say too much. No matter what happens, there is no need to worry about it." Explain yourself. And don’t panic, just stay the same.”

Wen Moyan stared at Shuang Feichen with wide eyes. Although she didn't speak, her eyes clearly asked, "What will happen?"

Shuang Feichen smiled slightly, stretched out his hand to straighten Wen Moyan's loose hairpin, and then continued: "Don't worry!"

After the words fell, Shuang Feichen couldn't leave, and returned to his place.

It's okay if he didn't say these words, but Wen Moyan couldn't help being nervous after exhorting him like this.

So much so that Wen Moyan paid attention to what the emperor and empress went up to worship their ancestors, what they said and what they did.

Wen Moyan didn't understand a single word of the lengthy speech to sacrifice to heaven.

Even when she saluted at the end, she almost forgot.

Fortunately, Princess Ding, who was beside her, reminded her in time.

Otherwise, she would destroy the entire sacrificial process.

Wen Moyan dragged her heavy clothes, got down on the knees and bowed, she couldn't help crying.

Concubine Ding beside her said in a low voice: "Yo, Concubine Qin, you are still wearing your body, is it very hard work? Don't worry, it's almost over, the recitation of the sacrifice to heaven is over, and the sun is rising. It will be over when Your Majesty and the Empress worship the ancestors again." gone."

Wen Moyan looked at Princess Ding, smiled wryly and said, "I'm in good health, thanks to sister-in-law's advice just now."

Prince Ding is the eldest son of the emperor, but he died young, leaving behind orphans and widows. He is not liked by His Majesty, and naturally he is not welcomed by the princes and ministers in the court.

After all, the most indispensable thing in this court is people who follow the wind.

Wen Moyan called her sister-in-law, which made Princess Ding feel flattered.

Now who doesn't know that His Highness King Qin is His Majesty's new favourite, the court's upstart!

Princess Ding smiled and said: "You're welcome, you're welcome, if you interrupt the sacrifice, everyone will suffer. I'm also thinking about my Zhen'er, so you don't have to take it to heart."

Wen Moyan followed Princess Ding's line of sight, and saw a seven or eight-year-old child standing in the line of men, and that was Prince Ding's son.

Wen Moyan withdrew her eyes, and suddenly felt that Princess Ding was quite honest, and she could obviously make her remember this kindness, but she just passed it lightly. It seemed that she was a person worthy of deep friendship.

Before Wen Moyan could say a few words to Princess Ding, Eunuch Chen on the high platform shouted, "Wen Moyan, Queen Qin's side concubine, come forward and listen!"

Wen Moyan's body froze, she hurriedly restrained her mind, and strode towards the middle.

Wen Moyan responded loudly: "Concubine Qin Wang's side concubine Wen Moyan, see Your Majesty, see Empress Empress."

Emperor Xuanwu nodded, and said: "You are pregnant, so there is no need to be too polite. I promised you before that if you win the competition with Beiyan, I will give you the position of concubine. Today, I am here to fulfill it." promise."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Emperor Xuanwu looked at Eunuch Chen, and Eunuch Chen immediately opened his mouth and said: "Bong, heaven is in charge, and the emperor ordered, saying: The side concubine of the King of Qin is Wen Moyan, Shushen has a mature nature, is diligent and submissive, graceful and pure, has a gentle and good behavior, and restrains the inner world." Then, Shude has a chapter. When you write it, you can be canonized as Qin Wangfei, hereby!"

Wen Moyan responded quickly: "The concubine Wen Moyan accepts the order, thank you Your Majesty for your kindness."

The queen picked up the gold book and seal handed over by the maid, and said, "Princess Qin, go forward and accept the seal."

Wen Moyan let out a long breath, and after receiving the golden book and gold seal, she is the real Princess Qin, and today's affairs are considered to be over.

For the time being, it looks like business as usual, and it looks like there will be no surprises.

However, just when Wen Moyan was thinking this way, an accident happened...
