Xiangmen black-bellied woman

Chapter 368 Win, win beautifully!

The officials were very surprised that the New Year's blessing ceremony was presided over by King Yijun?Shouldn't the crown prince of a country come forward on such an important occasion?

Seeing Baili Junyi standing on the high platform, the prince's eyes flashed with gloom, and the dark pupils became less and less bright.

"Kneel!" Without allowing them to think about it, Baili Junyi's singing of promises rang out.

"Drink!" The guards standing on both sides of the royal road suddenly raised their spears and threw them on the ground, making a loud shout.

The unprepared official trembled in fright. He looked up at Baili Qingcang, who was wearing a dragon robe, walking up the high platform step by step. When reaching the top of the stage, white smoke suddenly rose around the steps, as if the auspicious cloud pattern came to life, and the eyes widened in shock.

Just when they were surprised and didn't know what to do, Baili Junyi's voice sounded again: "The first stick of incense, respect heaven and earth! Kneel!"

Baili Qingcang personally took the incense and lit it, feeling astonished.When he asked Baili Junyi why he arranged this way before, he only briefly talked about the process and issued a military order, saying that there would be a perfect blessing ceremony.Just before he got on the high platform, he couldn't believe it when he saw such a simple decoration, but now he believed it.

Looking at the emperor standing in the auspicious clouds, the officials felt a sense of awe from the bottom of their hearts, which made them even more unexpected that it was still behind.

Just when Baili Qingcang finished his salute and put the incense in the incense burner, a clear and loud clamor suddenly sounded, and a group of white cranes flew up from the back of the Chengqian Hall, and flew towards the sky over the high prayer platform, attracting hundreds of thousands of people. The officer exclaimed.

Originally, when they saw white smoke rising from the high platform, they thought it was designed by Baili Junyi, but now they saw the white crane, and their minds changed.What time is it now?It is the twelfth lunar month of winter, how can there be white cranes in such cold weather?Even if Baili Junyi could find it, it would be impossible to transport the white crane to the capital overnight.

Baili Qingcang looked at Baili Junyi at the side, and found that he also had a slight look of surprise on his face, so he realized that this was not arranged by him in advance. Thinking about it this way, his face turned red with excitement. Well, the white crane is the most auspicious bird. Just as he offered incense to the heaven and the earth, a white crane flew by. What does this mean?It shows that he is indeed the man of destiny!
Baili Junyi then sang promise: "The second stick of incense, respect the ancestors! Kneel!"

The officials were so shocked that they quickly bowed down and kowtowed. They all had serious expressions on their faces, and they didn't know how much more respectful they were than before.

Just as Baili Qingcang inserted the second stick of incense into the censer, he heard a sanskrit bell ringing. The sound of the bell was particularly long and deep, rolling from afar.Everyone couldn't help but looked up to the sky, and they saw that the morning glow was as red as a flame, and the bell sounded as if it came from the red glow, with a shocking Sanskrit sound, which made people bow their heads in admiration.

Shen Ninghua slightly raised her head to look at the extraordinarily beautiful glow in the sky, and smiled slightly at the corner of her lips, they were unable to arrange this, it could be regarded as a surprise gift from God to them.

Baili Qingcang's face was full of joy, he closed his eyes slightly and listened carefully to the ringing of the bell. He only felt that this was his ancestor's recognition of him as the most outstanding emperor in Da'an!

Baili Junyi sang his promise again: "The third stick of incense, I respect the people of Da'an! Kneel!"

After Bailiqing put the incense on the sky, the officials looked at the sky and the surroundings, and found that there were no visions, so they let out a sigh of relief. The first two visions were too scary, and the respected people did not respond That's right.

Before their thoughts could be settled, they heard a cheer resounding through the sky: "Long live the emperor, long live, long live! Long live Da'an, long live, long live!"

The cheers came from all directions, and Baili Qingcang turned around in shock, the excitement in his eyes could hardly be concealed: "Jun Yi, this cheer?"

Baili Junyi showed a slightly surprised expression at the right time: "Father, I don't know, but the voice seems to come from outside the palace. Could it be the people of Kyoto?"

The leader of the Dragon Scale Guard has already come to report: "Reporting to the emperor, the people heard that the emperor prayed for the new year for Da'an, and they knelt outside the palace to pray together with the emperor."

Baili Qingcang took a deep breath to restrain his heart, not jumping out of his chest, and laughed loudly: "Okay, okay!"

Baili Junyi knelt down to salute and begged, saying: "Father, please go to the imperial city at this time and accept the worship of all people!"

"King Yi County is right, all the officials will follow me." Baili Qingcang strode up to the imperial city, looking at the dense crowd of people outside, a surge of pride rose from his chest.

When the people outside the palace wall saw Baili Qingcang in bright yellow clothes, their expressions became more and more excited: "Long live the emperor, long live, long live!"

For this kneeling, they worshiped willingly. After Baili Qingcang came to power, their life became better and better, especially in the past two years, the officials were not as arrogant as before, and there was not so much corruption. They really got benefits. If The emperor continues to maintain this style, they are willing to bow down every year!
Baili Qingcang raised his hand several times to signal them to get up, but the people didn't listen. They knelt on the ground and shouted long live, long live, long live the emperor over and over again.

Many officials blushed with excitement, especially the veterans who had been officials all their lives, knelt on the ground, wept on the skirts of their clothes, and knelt down to Baili Qingcang together with the people.

It lasted for about an hour, and when the common people saw Baili Qingcang leaving, they left around the palace reluctantly.

Back in the Chengqian Palace, Baili Qingcang was still very excited. He stood in front of the throne and paced back and forth. The blessing ceremony was done very well, and I am very satisfied."

Baili Junyi hurriedly got up and stood up: "Father is too famous. This blessing ceremony was arranged by the minister and the Ministry of Rites together. The minister dare not take the credit."

"Haha, you are modest." Zhang Yun, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, has been in the Ministry of Rites for more than ten years. He is extremely serious in his work, but the rules are too conservative and he will not be flexible at all. Fortunately, he is in the Ministry of Rites. Just come and do it. He can't arrange such a blessing ceremony.

Baili Junyi saluted and said: "Father, I just built a high platform, and then arranged it around the platform. I didn't do anything else. If you don't find out that I am not good at doing things, you are already lenient. gone."

"Okay, don't be humble, I have always been very clear about rewards and punishments. You have done a good job, so I will naturally reward you. Well... how about it, you were originally a prince, but because you left the capital some time ago, you were reduced to a prince. As the county king, this time you have made meritorious service, you will be re-appointed as the county king, and you will also be rewarded with a pair of jade Ruyi and a thousand taels of gold."

"Yes, my son, thank you, Father."

When Baili Qingcang was speaking, the prince stood with lowered eyes, and only raised his head slightly when he heard the final reward, and looked at Baili Junyi, who was saluting well, with a gleam of coldness in his eyes.

The smiles on the faces of the third prince and others became even stiffer, full of resentment and injustice: this blessing ceremony is extremely simple, and even the things that can be used are a high platform, an incense burner, Baili Junyi's contribution is almost empty-handed Picked it up, let them swallow this breath.

Several brothers envied and hated him, Baili Junyi lowered his head, but there was no particularly happy expression on his face. For now, there is no difference between the position of prince and the position of county king. He didn't care much about Jin Jin, what he cared about was his father's attitude towards him, who was behind the deliberate persecution ceremony.

Baili Qingcang was extremely happy, and announced a banquet to celebrate, and the group spent an hour in the palace eating before leaving.

After getting into the carriage with Shen Ninghua, Baili Junyi, who was tense like a bowstring, relaxed, leaned against Shen Ninghua and complained: "Ninghua, you don't know how dangerous last night was."

Shen Ninghua took the handkerchief and wiped his face for him, a lot of distress flashed in her heart: "I thought of that high platform when I saw that high platform, something happened to the things in the Ministry of Rites last night?"

"Well, most of it was burned by the fire, and the ones that weren't burned were also blackened, so it was almost useless." Baili Junyi said, sitting up straight suddenly, and stretched out his hand to lift his skirt: "How's the ankle?" , still hurts badly?"

"It's much better." Shen Ninghua said, but felt him pinch slightly, and the pain made her take a breath, "Be gentle."

Baili Junyi put her feet next to her legs, gently took off her shoes and socks, and used her internal force to heat up her palms and gently knead them, "If you don't rub the blood away, you will suffer even more pain later."

The pain was severe at first, but it eased after a while, Shen Ninghua asked aloud: "Who is behind the scenes who instigated people to burn the belongings of the Ministry of Rites?"

"Just think about who hates me the most." Baili Junyi looked up.

Shen Ninghua thought for a while and thought of a name: "Baili Jinchuan?"

"Eight or nine times out of ten it has something to do with him." Baili Junyi narrowed his eyes slightly, a flash of complacency flashed across his face, "But this time he failed to succeed in his calculations many times, and I'm afraid he is very angry."

The corners of Shen Ninghua's lips moved slightly, and she couldn't help laughing: "We were lucky not to be hit this time, but it doesn't mean that we will be so lucky next time. It's better to be more careful."

"Well, don't worry, I will be more careful. This time he dared to deal with us so confidently, he just saw his father's attitude towards us." Baili Junyi saw that Shen Ninghua's ankle was almost rubbed, and helped her put the shoe on Putting on the socks, a cold look flashed in his eyes, "It's not our style not to fight back, Ninghua, what do you think?"

"how do you want to do it?"

Baili Junyi smiled: "At this moment, the father has just experienced the unprecedented glory, and he will not watch the prince's bloody battle, but it doesn't matter if it is a small fight. I remember that the second emperor brother likes it the most. Hound?"
