Yuan Ruan's mouth twitched slightly: [What an outrageous way to flatter. ]

System: [Haha... that's nothing. He even wrote a book called "The Biography of the Great Xia Imperial Master" for you, Ah Ruan. When your car passes by, he will read it out loud...]

Spectators: ???

Is this flattery? ! This is like bumping yourself into the horse's legs.

The emperor frowned slightly.

Yuanruan's pupils trembled: [No! Taishe is dead. Save me! ]

She quickly turned around and grabbed the prince's wrist, wanting to drive the official away, but she couldn't think of a suitable reason.

When the prince saw Yuan Ruan was so anxious that his brows were furrowed, his heart softened and his mind frantically thought about how to take over the blame.

Soon, an idea flashed through the prince's mind. He patted the back of Yuan Ruan's hand soothingly: "What's wrong, Xiaojiu? Are you feeling uncomfortable because you have been riding in the car for too long? How about I take you on another flat road to get some fresh air?"

Yuanruan let out an anxious "ah" and was about to shake his head, but suddenly he thought of this good suggestion!

If she rode the horse along another route, she would just have to find an excuse to keep the car where it was. This way, she would most likely not run into the flattering official, and the incident of "The Biography of the Young Imperial Master" would not have happened.

perfect!

Yuan Ruan immediately nodded to the prince and said in a soft voice: "Okay. Brother Prince... and father, do you want to ride together? Hmm..."

At this point, Yuanruan was still thinking of an excuse to keep the carriage.

Upon seeing this, the emperor, who was sitting in the carriage, put down the teacup in his hand and directly ordered Commander Zhang outside the carriage to park all the idle carriages and send them over after the Fengshan ceremony at Mount Tai.

Yuan Ruan was so happy that he didn't need to find an excuse. He held the emperor's hand and rode happily.

The sacrificial team inadvertently sped up, and the emperor and Yuan Ruan, who were leading the way, instantly passed the officials who wanted to recite and flatter them.

Officer: QAQ?

……

Soon, the emperor and his entourage arrived at the main priest's field responsible for offering sacrifices to the "Earth".

This is a small peak located on the waist of Mount Tai.

The emperor wore a crown, clothes, shoes and sash made of nine colored jewels.

The court officials who followed him all wore white deerskin hats and had tablets tied around their waists with ribbons.

As the music started, the Minister of the Ministry of Rites stepped forward and began the ceremony of welcoming the gods.

The emperor, the crown prince, and all the civil and military officials knelt and offered jade and silk.

The emperor washed his hands and ascended the altar. To the sound of music, the emperor ascended the Altar of Ditan.

Yuan Ruan, who had changed into a Taoist robe, came over holding a plate for offering sacrifices.

The emperor personally arranged the tribute plate for the gods, knelt down again before the altar, burned incense, and laid down jade and silk.

The official in charge of the ceremony brought out the sacrificial text, knelt down and read it out, and all the ministers drank the wine that was blessed by heaven.

Then, the generals placed the sacrifices such as "cow", "wild boar" and "deer" that they had hunted personally into the altar, and waited for the official in charge of reading the blessing to finish, then sprinkled wine and water on it and poured a flame.

The flames in Ditan Temple were burning fiercely.

The same process was repeated at the Temple of Heaven on Mount Tai, and similarly, the flames were burning brightly at the Temple of Ditan.

The emperor looked at the half-burned offerings in the "Temple of Earth" and the "Temple of Heaven", then pulled Yuan Ruan to continue walking towards the top of Mount Tai.

As they walked, Yuanruan looked around: [Tong'er, where is the golden dragon of luck? Has it hatched?]

Generals who were unaware of the situation: ???

The ministers who knew the inside story: !!!

Finally this topic is mentioned!

Yes!

One of the biggest things they came here for was the golden dragon egg!

Where is it? Has it hatched yet?! Will I still have a chance to touch it?
