Quick Travel: Start by pretending to be an envoy to help the First Emperor’s infrastructure

Chapter 47: New Year’s Eve Sacrifice
The Qin Dynasty had a unified sacrificial policy. The ghosts and gods of heaven, earth, rivers, mountains, and rivers all had special sacrificial times. Calves, calves, coins, and various sacrificial items were offered by the officials at the temple. The emperor also offered sacrifices when he passed by. People in counties and counties offered sacrifices to distant shrines individually. Ancestral temple, do not receive the emperor's official blessing.

The sacrifices in Xianyang are naturally under the jurisdiction of the imperial court. Yongsi is the most noble. There are more than 28 places around Yongsi, including 100 places. You'an was confused when he heard Taizhu explain. No wonder the quarrel lasted for so long, just for the sacrifices. Everyone's name is so particular, and taking it step by step is not a tedious task that ordinary people can take care of.

From now on, I will never say that I wish these officials who preside over sacrifices too much to live their lives. It’s really hard to live in these days. If you don’t pay attention to any link, it is easy to miss and make mistakes. In ancient times, sacrifices were regarded as the top priority. If there were mistakes, everything would be punished. To pursue the responsibility, you have to peel off your skin even if you don't die, which is a test of people's meticulousness and patience.

This time, You'an felt that this sacrifice was even more complicated than when she went to court. She was already confused because she had the title of a divine envoy and did not need to comply with all the requirements. She still couldn't figure out the whole process. In the end, Taizhu couldn't figure it out. When the time comes, she can send people to remind her step by step. As long as she doesn't do anything unusual during the sacrifice, no one will catch her pigtails.

You'an was lying on the recliner, his whole body exuding the aura of being tired from all the hard work, and he didn't want to move.

He gently started pinching her wrist before putting it on, and slowly felt a slight soreness from her wrist. It was not uncomfortable, but rather a sour and refreshing feeling.

"Yi, what would I do without you?"

Yi massaged her slowly, moved his hands to her shoulders and neck, and applied slight pressure on her wrists, "The messenger is so easy to talk to everyone, and he is always good at coaxing people."

After staying with her for a long time, the clothes gradually relaxed for a long time. If it were at the beginning, these words would never be uttered.

You'an turned his body sideways, "If you have a long mouth, you have to say nice things. If you don't know what to say, it's better to shut up. By the way, Yi, can you beat Wang Li?"

Yi Hao used to speak with a wide range of words, so he was not surprised at all, "If it were a battlefield, the young marquis would crush me."

"Push"

You'an heard the implication between her words. If they were fighting each other normally, she would beat Wang Li easily.

"God's envoy must not use slaves to stimulate the young prince."

You'an agreed. If she could beat Wang Li, she would not be afraid of hurting him on weekdays. But after changing into clothes, Wang Li didn't look so stingy now, but who knew he was being more serious when he said it?

On the first day of October, sacrifices are held at the beginning of the year.

The sacrificial scene was solemn and solemn, no one made any unnecessary noise, and everyone waited solemnly.

After the furnishings are completed, the presenting officials and deacons perform four salutes, play music to welcome the gods and worship the gods four times.

You'an was dazzled by the previous process. It was obviously a very simple action, but the order of each item could not be confused. The person below had a serious expression, and only the sound of music and dancing could be heard in the empty venue.

You'an didn't understand all this at all, but she was very clear-headed. She followed Taizhu step by step. She stood behind Ying Zheng and watched his tall body step up to the altar step by step. God is so proud of him. It turned out to be cold. The gloomy sky revealed the long-lost sunshine, which fell on the dark black robe, and the golden threads hidden on it could be faintly seen.

She still had something to think about: Our ancestors were pretty pretty.

"Angel"

Before Youan could react, she saw her original figure turning around and her ancestor looking at her.You'an thought guiltily, could it be that her ancestor noticed that she was distracted?
Ying Zheng turned around, and You An still felt that the sunlight behind him was a bit dazzling.

"The arrival of the divine envoy to Great Qin is a blessing to Great Qin. Please join me on the altar."

Tai Zhu next to him never expected that when he came here, his willful Majesty would actually make trouble for him.

You'an was stunned for a moment, then broke out into a big smile and walked side by side.

Laying jade and silk fabrics, bringing them in, first presenting them, reading congratulatory messages...

You'an and Yingzheng didn't have to do anything. At most, they were worshiping the gods. Music was played for every ritual, and there were dances by civil and military warriors.

She stood there and was the focus of everyone. Ying Zheng still needed to report to his ancestors, but she did not have this need.

Ying Zheng stood there and stood there, looking at the ancestors of the past generations. What he was thinking in his heart was different from what everyone thought. He thought that he was standing here without any humility, and the ancestors of the past generations would only be happy. He just thought that he was not yet completely In the stable Great Qin, it was rare for Ying Zheng to think about things that needed blessing.

I hope that the divine seed brought out by the divine envoy can blossom and bear fruit in the land of Great Qin;
I hope Fusu and the others can make some progress;
I hope that the divine envoy... will always favor Da Qin.

You'an really wanted to ask what Ying Zheng was praying for, but he quickly lost his mind. Although there are no human sacrifices in Da Qin, there are still animal sacrifices.

What surprised her was that after almost finishing the ceremony, a group of monarchs and ministers in Da Qin started to prepare for a "buffet" without any scruples.

All the livestock food that was sacrificed before was taken down and divided for blessing. In their concept, food that has been tasted by ancestors and gods is better for the body.

You'an took the most tender mutton handed over by Ying Zheng. For a moment, he didn't know if they were feudal or open, but he was quite open-minded.

The tender lamb tasted really good, though.

After the sacrifice here, the Guizhou leaders in Xianyang have become lively. They have queued up outside the replica of the Six Kingdoms Palace. Even some people from well-off families have not had the chance to see what the palace looks like. However, if they have this opportunity, who knows what will happen next Will His Majesty change his mind? Everyone was waiting there with their personal experience. They were not impatient in the long queue, chatting and laughing with the people around them, and there was no unnecessary gloom on their faces.

You'an observed the surroundings. Wang Li followed his eldest father and shuttled among the generals. Fusu led a group of young men to greet the clan members. Wang Wan was unhurried and was probably not discussing government affairs with his friends. Li Si The spring breeze is proud...

Everyone's expressions are full of content, but at least this moment seems to be a happy one.

You'an obviously didn't do anything after the sacrifice, but she just felt tired all over. She still had time to rest, but the officials of Da Qin didn't take a vacation, so they still went to court the next day.

Moreover, the previous disputes over enfeoffment and counties came to an end, and the news that Wang Wan was resigning was not concealed. Li Sihuai was excited, but his face remained calm, waiting for the dust to settle.

But I never thought that even if I was sure of winning, one day I would stumble.
