The prince just explained a lot, but didn't answer his question at all.

So why did Tang'er go into seclusion? What did Tang'er do in the ritual?

Tang'er won't be returning home these days and will stay in Yunshang Temple?

However, Crown Prince Xiao Che had already turned back to the Sanqing Hall and ordered the three black-clad guards at the gate to close the door.

Even if there were no young men here to stop people, once he closed the door of the palace, no one else would have a chance to get forward.

They had just taken the medicine given by their junior uncle in the back mountain, and after quickly regulating their breathing, they rushed to the front.

They did not expect so many court officials to come. To get them to leave, only the status of the Crown Prince Regent could be used.

After the temple doors were closed, the Sanqing Hall and the adjacent Zushi Hall were empty, with only a few young Taoist priests cleaning up.

When they returned to the peach forest in the back mountain, they all looked worried.

Junior Master must be in seclusion at this time not for cultivation, but to refine the evil energy that has entered his body.

Can it be restored to its original state in less than a day?

This ritual is to save Ninth Uncle, but to what extent will Junior Uncle suffer?

Do you want to tell father?

Do you want to ask Fifth Uncle, Sixth Uncle, and Seventh Uncle to help?

But Junior Master Uncle has told us to do the same thing tomorrow.

What it means is that there will be the same number of people tomorrow as there are today, but what will change are the believers in the square outside.

A few people walked to the basement and wanted to check on the young master's situation again, and they found that there was a formation at the entrance of the basement. The young master's words of not seeing anyone turned out to include them.

They looked at each other and were all very worried.

In the capital, Xiao Ye invited everyone to dinner at a restaurant, and then hurried to the palace to report the events of Yunshang Temple to his father.

No one else followed him and they all went back home to tell their families about the miraculous encounter that day.

They received a peace amulet and would give it to those in their family who did not have one yet.

They have already planned to set off early tomorrow morning so that they can occupy the best position.

At the observatory, Xiao Beichen and Yun Xuanyuan were still looking towards the south. After listening to Xiao Ye's report of the detailed process, they both sighed.

"We shouldn't have let those court officials go to Yunshang Temple. Fortunately the prince was there." Yun Xuanyuan complained.

"I was thinking that since I had just conferred the title upon Xiao Tang'er, I was afraid that these people might cause trouble in secret. It would be better to let them go to Yunshang Temple to see the power of our Taoist sect."

Knowing how powerful Taoism is, it is much easier to accept Xiao Tang'er's power.

"There will be more people going tomorrow. If some of them who have not passed the test try to force their way in... we need to send more people to maintain order." Yun Xuanyuan reminded.

Xiao Beichen stroked his chin and thought for a while, then suddenly smiled and said, "Send a team of Qinglong Guards to guard the South Gate early tomorrow morning. You can only leave the city after you pass the checkpoint."

"Set up another checkpoint in the direction of Panlongling, and another at the foot of the mountain. Those who pass through today will definitely be able to pass through tomorrow."

"The South Gate checkpoint will definitely be more congested and take longer. Those who want to join in the fun will see if they have enough patience."

If there were more believers, would the ritual receive better support?

Xiao Beichen thought about the letter that Yi Zhen had sent back not long ago, and felt a little worried but also a little expectant.

However... Yun Xuanyuan didn't think so.

"It's better to spread the word that those who go today can still go tomorrow, and those who don't go today shouldn't go tomorrow. After all, Yunshang Temple can't accommodate more people."

The next two days are the critical moments of the ritual and we cannot afford to be negligent. It is better to proceed according to today's procedure and be on the safe side.

Xiao Beichen shook his head and said, "Those who benefit today will definitely bring their families there tomorrow."

"We were slow today and didn't catch up. I'm afraid they won't be willing to let it go. This is not good for the power of the Taoist faith either."

"Why not take this opportunity to test these people's devotion to Taoism and whether they are sincere in their devotion to Taoism? After all, next year's Luotian Grand Ceremony is more important."

Speaking of the Luotian Grand Ceremony, Yun Xuanyuan's expression also changed. He nodded and stopped objecting.

Although the Luotian Grand Ceremony has not yet been officially announced, preparations are already underway.

All Taoist temples in the Great Xia Dynasty were notified through crane letters in the name of Qingfeng Temple, and what was to come next was the imperial decree issued by the court regarding the rituals and ceremonies.

In addition to Tianji Pavilion and Xiuyu Tower preparing all the ritual instruments, robes, Taoist flags and other items for the Luotian Grand Ceremony, the Ministry of Works was also building a farm at the foot of Longpanling.

The Yunshang Temple will also be expanded on Longpanling.

At that time, Taoist priests from other Taoist temples will live in the expanded area of ​​Yunshang Temple, and the farm at the foot of the mountain will accommodate believers from afar who come to attend the meeting.

And those farms will become imperial farms in the future, becoming Xiao Beichen's private property, or given to his sons as assets.

Yuntang also has a hot spring resort outside the city, which Xiao Beichen gave to her a long time ago.

Unfortunately, Yuntang did not spend the New Year in the capital and had never been there, but his senior brothers had been there several times.

Today, Yuntang was conferred the title of Princess Yuntang, the Protector of the Nation, and was only given the Protector of the Nation Seal and the Princess's Golden Book and Jade Certificate.

In addition, the princess must also have a mansion, ceremonial guards, and all the necessary items and properties.

But this title was what Xiao Beichen had intended to give to his junior fellow apprentice. Yun Tang had not accepted it, and he accepted it today for other reasons, not to show off this glory.

These are all minor details. Next year's Luotian Grand Ceremony is the major event that the Qingfeng sect is now focusing all its efforts on.

Today's prayer ceremony went smoothly, which made them feel at ease and expectant.

Yesterday afternoon they practiced the Southern School of Thunder Method again. Today... they decided to take a break for three days to let people know that this so-called thunder disaster would not occur on the same day as the blessing ceremony.

In the afternoon, as everyone returned to the capital one after another, the news also spread back.

The grand ceremony of blessing and blessing at Yunshang Temple, the golden light shining on everyone from Sanqing Hall, and all the miraculous Taoist scenes were talked about with great relish and spread by word of mouth.

In Prince Cheng's mansion, Prince Cheng scolded his son who had returned happily. The words "unfilial and rebellious son" were almost sprayed on Prince Chenghe's face.

Prince Cheng Wang hid beside Princess Cheng and said with a smile: "Father, calm down. You should be thankful that your son ran fast, otherwise you would not be able to catch up."

At that moment, Prince Chenghe recounted in detail everything he had seen and heard that even though he ran so fast he still had to pass three tests, and in the end he only got a cushion at the back.

Prince Cheng was speechless.

Even if you were not a Taoist before, you would have known about the royal Taoist temple Yunshang Temple. Yunshang Temple occupies a very spacious area, and the square in front of the Sanqing Hall is not small.

Moreover, since the Emperor wanted to hold the Luotian Grand Ceremony, the Ministry of Works has been building many farms at the foot of Longpanling. After the farms are built, a Taoist temple will be expanded on the mountain.

The square will be even bigger then!

There must be several thousand people here today. Even if he manages to make it, can he climb the mountain given his speed?

Even if he could enter the Taoist temple and kneel on the cushion for more than an hour, could he do it?
