After being turned into cannon fodder, I made the emperor cry with anger

Chapter 38 You were wrong because you didn’t cast yourself into a pig fetus

Min Yiyi: "I misunderstood you!"

Di Hanxin: "What else?"

Min Yiyi: "I shouldn't be rude to you."

Di Hanxin: "That's it?"

Min Yiyi thought hard: "Also...and there is, just..."

"When you figure out where you went wrong, come back and tell me!" Di Hanxin turned and walked away.

Min Yiyi: "..."

Where else did she go wrong?
……

"Dad, what else did your mother do wrong?" The young apprentice asked Wang Fugui after thinking for a long time without understanding.

Wang Fugui glanced at him: "Are you too busy?"

The young apprentice grinned: "Dad, no one understands the emperor's thoughts better than you, just tell your son!"

Wang Fugui was silent for a while and said: "You are right. I watched the emperor grow up, so of course I understand him. Our emperor, on the surface, looks mature and prudent, but after all, he is a child who has just grown up. What he longs for most is the feeling of a family like ordinary people's homes, where they love each other, take care of each other, and trust each other. Do you understand?"

The young apprentice is smart. If he is not smart, he cannot be valued by Wang Fugui.

He thought for a while, nodded and said, "My son understands!"

Wang Fugui: "What do you understand?"

Young disciple: "The Queen's fault was that she hid something from the Emperor and didn't tell him! That clearly shows that she doesn't trust him!"

The corners of Wang Fugui's mouth curved slightly.

……

One of Min Yiyi's ten wishes: to participate in a large-scale sacrifice, came true the next day.

The summer solstice, as an important solar term, is an important time to worship ancestors and gods.

During the summer solstice, we worship the earth and pray for a good harvest, good weather, and peace for the country and the people.

The emperor and his officials would first leave the palace to offer sacrifices at the Earth Altar; after returning to the palace, they would take their concubines and family members to the Ancestral Temple to offer sacrifices to express their respect and gratitude to the gods and ancestors.

Naturally, Min Yiyi and other harem women could not leave the palace to go to the Temple of Earth. They could only go to the Ancestral Temple.

On this day, a whole hour earlier than usual, Min Yiyi was dug out of the bed by Rong's mother, and a crowd of people gathered around to put on makeup for her.

He gave her a majestic yet exquisite make-up, put on a sacrificial dress, a golden crown on her head, a collar on her neck, and matching earrings, colored hair, beads, etc., and she was half done. An hour later, when I stood in front of the mirror and took a look, I saw that she really had a very elegant and elegant temperament.

Of course, she is also good-looking.

Big where it should be, small where it should be, tall and well-proportioned, able to hold up clothes.

The face also looks good, even though it has been painted with white walls and black tiles with holly, it still looks pretty good.

It can't be said to be beautiful, but it does have momentum and majesty.

At the end of Mao Shi, the emperor returned to the palace and took them to the Ancestral Temple.

The Imperial Ancestral Temple is located in the southeast of the palace. It is not far away, but it is not too close for the nobles who usually live in a comfortable position.

But in order to show respect for their ancestors, they could only walk all the way there without taking the sedan chair.

The emperor walked at the front, followed by the two queen mothers.

Min Yiyi supported the Queen Mother of the East, and Concubine Chun supported the Queen Mother of the West. The ceremonial guard opened the way in a mighty manner.

Halfway down the road, Queen Mother Dong suddenly whispered to Min Yiyi: "No matter what happens later, don't talk."

Min Yiyi glanced at her and nodded.

The Queen Mother is going to cause trouble.

The book describes the plot of the Summer Solstice sacrifice. It is said that the Queen Mother of the East had one of the three animal sacrifices replaced, so that Concubine Chun lost the palace power, and the palace power returned to Min Yiyi's hands.

Since she came here, the plot has changed again and again, and she is not sure whether what Empress Dowager Dong did was to change the sacrifice.But she decided to remind Concubine Chun.

When we arrived at the Ancestral Temple, everyone was waiting because the auspicious time had not yet arrived.

At this time, Min Yiyi looked confused and went over to ask Concubine Chun: "Concubine Chun, this is my first time to participate in the sacrifice. I am a little nervous. My head is empty and I can't remember anything! Wait a moment. , can you remind me?"

Concubine Chun smiled proudly, moved closer to Min Yiyi, and whispered in a half-taunting, half-warning voice: "Then you must relax! Don't blame me for not reminding you that sacrifices cannot go wrong, otherwise it will happen." It is regarded as offensive to the gods! Moreover, this is the first large-scale sacrifice since the emperor ascended the throne. With so many eyes of two clans watching, if something goes wrong, the emperor will be implicated! Are you afraid of being said to be an ominous omen or something like that? I won’t be able to eat enough and will have to walk around!”

Min Yiyi took the opportunity and whispered: "Then you should also pay attention, especially be careful not to get the wrong three animal sacrifices."

Different sacrifices require different sacrifices.

The Dragon Boat Festival is for cattle, sheep and pigs, and the Summer Solstice is for chicken, fish and meat.

"You don't need to worry about this!" Concubine Chun said, "I am responsible for this sacrifice. If I don't even know this, wouldn't it be a joke?"

Min Yiyi: "It's better to check again."

While they were talking, Min Yiyi had been paying attention to the movements of Queen Mother Dong. She seemed to notice something and looked back. Min Yiyi quickly moved away from Concubine Chun and walked to Di Hanxin.

Later, the two of them will stand side by side at the front to worship.

Concubine Chun felt that Min Yiyi was like a lunatic.But after standing there for a while, I felt increasingly uneasy.

She turned back to her confidant eunuch and whispered to him. The eunuch nodded and walked away silently.

When the auspicious time comes, the emperor and the empress will lead the queen mother, concubines, and the emperor's clan, with hundreds of people in total, to worship ancestors and gods.

Min Yiyi paid special attention to the sacrifices. There were no problems with the three animals and other sacrifices.

I don’t know if Empress Dowager Dong didn’t interfere with this, or if Concubine Chun found out in time and came back to remedy the situation...

When the sacrifice began, the National Master, as the priest, read a long sacrificial text.

The sacrificial text was profound and difficult to pronounce. She could recognize the individual words, but she couldn't understand them all together.

Moreover, it is too long.

Min Yiyi maintained her worshiping posture, feeling increasingly sleepy.

She woke up an hour earlier than usual this morning, which disrupted her biological clock and made her really sleepy.

Di Hanxin also felt her sleepiness, rolled his eyes and glanced at her with his peripheral vision.

Her eyes were closed.

Fortunately, their backs were turned to the people behind them, so no one could see her dozing except for the ancestor's memorial tablet.

"Queen." Di Hanxin called out in a low voice.

She had no intention of opening her eyes.

"Min Yiyi!"

Min Yiyi was awakened, opened her eyes suddenly, and turned her eyes to look at Di Hanxin.

"How dare you fall asleep!" Di Hanxin's voice was so low that Min Yiyi could only hear a shadow.

But she knew that she had been warned, so she worked very hard to wake herself up, and whispered: "Your Majesty, I haven't figured it out yet, what went wrong, please tell me!"

Di Hanxin: "You are greedy, sleepy and stupid. You made the mistake of not being born into a pig fetus. That would be more suitable for you."

Min Yiyi bared her teeth.

The corners of Di Hanxin's mouth curved slightly.

The next hour or so was painful.

She was sleepy, her legs and feet were weak from standing, her head was heavy under the pressure of the crown, and she had to concentrate on paying attention to the etiquette. After the ceremony was over, she no longer wanted to participate in the second ceremony. She was so tired that she just wanted to go back and lie down.

However, Concubine Chun refused to let her have her way and insisted on talking to her halfway.
