Chapter 1107: Sacrifice to the Heavens (2)
The ritual of worshipping the heavens is very complex and cumbersome, and the main process includes welcoming the gods, bowing, entering the ceremony, making the first offering, sub-offering, and final offering. However, the temporary change of venue made everything simpler.
Fireworks lit in the burnt wood stove, and the grandson walked to the throne of the Emperor of Heaven and knelt down. The officials who followed also knelt down and bowed to him.
After kneeling three times and bowing nine times, he bowed to the tablets of the other gods. After worshipping the gods, he offered jade, silk and other things to the gods of the Emperor of Heaven.
After completing this series of processes to worship the sky, Taisun fulfilled his promise and took Fu Jingene to the acacia forest not far away to enjoy the acacia flowers.
The wild locust flowers are all one in the east and one in the west, but there are more than 20 here. Standing under the locust tree, Taisun said, "Who do you say is planting locust flowers here?" ”
Lian Ying said respectfully: "If Your Highness wants to know, the minister will immediately send someone to inquire." ”
"No need, let's go back!"
On the way back, there were two mountains to cross, and Commander Zhao sent people to search both sides of the mountains in advance to prevent an ambush, but fortunately, nothing happened.
After crossing these two mountains, Taisun leaned on the pillow and smiled, "Rare calm! ”
Fu Jingene said: "It's just the calm before the storm, and it will definitely not be peaceful next." ”
"If I make it back to Beijing, the chair will be out of business. This is their last chance, and they will definitely fight to the death. ”
Speaking of this, the grandson smiled, showing that smile with a touch of irony: "For that chair, my father and the king have suffered for the emperor's grandfather for more than thirty years. Now, my imperial uncles want to repeat the same old trick. And such things will continue to be staged in the future. ”
Fu Jingene said: "Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. The dragon emperor and grandson fought for the chair, the officials fought for the position of the first assistant, and the ordinary people fought for three meals. As my daughter-in-law once told me, life is actually very hard. ”
Taisun nodded slightly: "Your daughter-in-law is right, it is indeed a very difficult thing to live." In fact, your daughter-in-law is very transparent and talented, but unfortunately she can only be trapped in the inner house if she is a woman. ”
Fu Jingene said with a smile: "She is planning to set up a school to teach various skills to women. Once successful, there will be a female accountant, a female brewer, and a female craftsman in the capital......"
Taisun became interested and said, "Tell me in detail." ”
Fu Jingene said briefly: "Because I haven't done it, many of them are still being explored." The academy is now under construction, and His Highness can go and see it when he has a chance in the future. ”
After hearing this, Taisun looked at him and asked, "You don't want her to enter the officialdom?" ”
"It's not that she doesn't want to, but her temperament is not suitable for officialdom, and she is a person who is easily soft-hearted."
Officialdom is soft-hearted, which is a fatal weakness.
Taisun leaned in the carriage and said, "It's just your excuse!" I don't think your daughter-in-law is soft-hearted, on the contrary, I think she can be ruthless when she should be ruthless. ”
Fu Jingene didn't know why he came to such a conclusion, and suddenly became vigilant: "It's still too soft-hearted." Let's just say that my father-in-law has ignored her since he was a child and wants to steal her industry and exclusive formula. If it were me, I would have broken off the relationship a long time ago, how could I spend money to make a relationship with him. ”
Taisun smiled and changed the subject: "What do you think of Kou Ju?" ”
Fu Jingene said: "Except for Lian Ying, those officials are very afraid of him, and he should be in control of Shaanxi and Gansu." ”
In other words, Kou Ju is the emperor of the northwest.
Taisun looked up at the top of the carriage and said softly: "The government is so corrupt, and if the country is not strictly rectified, it will have to change hands." But what about those people? I'm still trying to figure out the mechanics of that chair, but that chair is not easy to sit on. ”
In Liaodong, there are barbarian gold tigers, the coastal pirates are rampant, the ministers in the court form parties for personal gain, and the local corrupt officials are rampant. It can be said that this world is already full of holes, and the successor emperor will have to be the king of the country if he is not careful.
If it weren't for the fact that he would lose his life if he didn't become an emperor, he really didn't want to take this hot potato, but these people wanted to kill him for this broken chair.
"Your arsenic, his preserves." Fu Jingene said: "Your Highness, Taizu was able to fight a bloody way to lay down this country in such a difficult environment. I believe that you will also be able to protect the Ming Dynasty and return the people to a Qingming world. ”
Taisun said with a smile: "Taizu has Empress Shixian by his side, so he is not afraid to charge in front, because of the solid backing in the back." Who's beside me, you?
Fu Jingene shuddered, and said with a panicked face: "Your Highness, I have a wife and children!" ”
Taisun couldn't help but laugh and scolded: "As long as you have rough skin and thick meat, you can't look down on Lonely." ”
Fu Jingene laughed twice: "When the princess granddaughter comes to the door, His Royal Highness can train her well and let her become your virtuous helper." ”
Taisun glanced at him and said, "Do you think Gao Xin'er can become a virtuous helper?" It's good not to give the lonely hind legs. Also, do you think Gao Shoufu will stand firmly on Lone's side? ”
Gao Shoufu belongs to the wall grass, which side is big, and it will fall to which side. As soon as the chaos in the capital comes out, maybe they will turn against each other.
Fu Jingene stopped talking.
In the evening, the group returned to the inn. After eating something and washing up casually, the grandson rested.
In the middle of the night, Fu Jingen, who was asleep, suddenly jumped up: "There is an assassin ......"
"Whoosh......"
An arrow shot through the window and onto the bed, followed by several more arrows on the bed. Fortunately, Taisun didn't sleep in bed, otherwise he would have been shot into a sieve.
At this time, someone shouted: "Oh no, it's ...... water"
The whole station was soon thrown into chaos. And the fire spread very quickly, and it burned downstairs at once.
It's all people, and it's a mess. Fu Jingene wanted to take his grandson down, but the stairs were full of people. Seeing that it was not right, Fu Jingene carried Taisun directly over the fence and jumped from the second floor and then rushed out of the inn.
When he got outside, he found that Taisun had fainted, and Fu Jingene shouted loudly: "Come on, go and ask Taiyi Xing to come over." ”
At this moment, the group of soldiers wearing Northwest military uniforms around him suddenly turned against each other, and Fu Jingene and Xuan Jing tried their best to protect their grandson.
Fortunately, Zhao Kehan quickly rushed over and killed all these assassins at once. However, when he walked to Taisun, his face changed greatly when he looked at the blood on his arm: "Your Highness is injured." ”
Fu Jingene picked up the grandson's arm, looked at the wound and breathed a sigh of relief: "It's not poisonous." ”
If it's poisonous, it's a problem.
Imperial Doctor Xing quickly rushed over, and after examining the wound, he rejoiced: "Fortunately, it didn't hurt the bone, otherwise it would have been more troublesome." ”
After saying that, he sat down and put his hand on Taisun's pulse.
