Chapter 560
The queen smiled happily: "I like it even more."

Because the form was cumbersome and boring, and they couldn't make any noise, Xiang Qing didn't take Erbao with her, and asked Yun Zixun to play with them in the palace.

Before offering sacrifices or giving big ceremonies, the ancients bathed and changed their clothes, did not drink alcohol or eat meat, and expressed their sincere respect, which was called "fasting".

After fasting for three days, Xiang Qing felt that she had gained two catties.

In the modern sense, "meat" mainly refers to fish and meat food, which is usually used together with the word "fishy", but it was not the case in ancient times. The non-eating of meat in fasting does not mean eating vegetarian food or avoiding meat, on the contrary, eating meat in different ways .

Because the "meat" here refers to pungent-smelling dishes such as onion, garlic, leek, and ginger. The purpose of not eating them is to prevent unpleasant smells from the mouth during sacrifices or receptions, which will cause disrespect to gods, ancestors or guests. .

First followed Murong Zi and the queen to the temple to worship the portraits of the ancestors, then went to the ancestral temple to worship the ancestors' spiritual tablets, and finally went to the Temple of Heaven to worship the sky. Everywhere I went, I knelt three times and kowtowed nine times. After praying for a while, Xiang Qing's neck was almost broken, and her knees were sore, but seeing Murong Zi and the queen's expressions were serious and the worship was serious, she had no choice but to secretly endure the discomfort.

When the sacrificial ceremony comes to an end, it is the last parade ceremony. This parade is not like a person who has made a mistake and is dragged along the street by a chain, and is beaten and scolded by others, but sits with the emperor and is driven by six horses. In the process of being dragged by the royal family, from the Temple of Heaven all the way back to the palace, you have to go around the main roads in all directions of the capital to complete the ceremony. The intention is to let the people know the existence of her as a princess, and let her accept the people's love and worship.

The people of the entire capital gathered on the main road in all directions, and it became a spectacular scene of thousands of people emptying the alleys. Wherever Yu Huan went, there were people kneeling and worshiping. The sound of the princess being a thousand years old made Xiang Qing's ears feel numb. She was so tired that she was about to climb down, so she just wanted to finish quickly and take off the heavy clothes, so she just kept a faint smile, and was held by Murong Zi while sitting on the wheel and driving slowly.

On a tall building, a silver figure stood in front of the window, watching such a grand and lively scene, with a light in his eyes and a smile on the corner of his mouth. A princess in an ancient country could be so beautiful. Knowing how magnificent the overlord of the world should be, he is looking forward to that day more and more, Xiang Qing, you must remember your glory today, and you will come back to savor it after you lose it, it must be very good !
"Xiang Qing, mother, don't drag me, I'm going to find Xiang Qing!" On the other side of the street, Murong Zi saw Xiang Qing passing by, and was about to rush out, but was stopped by Ximen Ruoxue.

Ximen Ruoxue said: "I have already promised you to wait three days before going back. Now that you have finished watching Xiang Qing offering sacrifices to the sky, what do you want?"

"Mother, I can't live without Xiang Qing!" Liu Yunhe said in pain.

Ximen Ruoxue asked sadly: "Then you can live without a mother, right?"

"Mother, don't cry!" Liu Yunhe was heartbroken seeing his always strong mother shed tears, why can't he have both love and affection?

Ximen Ruoxue said: "You immediately follow me back to Xihe Kingdom, she is now the well-known princess of the Northern Wolf Kingdom, if you can't stay together anymore, go with your mother!" After saying that, she pulled him and turned to leave.

Liu Yunhe turned his head and saw Yu Huan leaving slowly, disappearing into the princess Qiantui who seemed to never stop, his heart was also empty, his nose was sore, and a stream of tears rolled down.

"The princess returns to the palace!" After entering the palace gate, with a shout, the bell rang like thunder, buzzing so loudly that one's head would split open.
