The eunuch's unique shrill voice sounded loudly.

Then the bright yellow imperial carriage was seen walking in from outside the gate tower.

Thousands of dignitaries, wealthy businessmen and common people in the square were all horrified and quickly knelt down to greet him:

"Long live my emperor! Long live!"

The Taoists on the altar also left the altar and went forward to pay their respects and greet them.

This was the first time in all these years that Pei Xuan had come into such close contact with the emperor.

However, he had been in this feudal era for nearly ten years, and his heart was already filled with awe of the imperial power, so he did not dare to look up rashly.

"This must be Su Changshi, please stand up!"

A majestic and deep male voice sounded, clearly reaching Pei Xuan's ears.

There were clearly several thousand people at the scene, but it was extremely quiet.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"I have come here specially to offer sacrifices to the deity. I wonder if I have missed the auspicious time to burn the first incense?"

Huiyun looked at the palace maids and eunuchs behind Emperor Yong'an, whose bodies were so tall that they spread out of the gate tower.

They stood in two rows, each holding a box in their hands, which were obviously all offerings prepared by Emperor Yong'an.

This is quite generous.

However, no matter how generous you are, you still have to follow the rules of the temple master.

Even though she still had fear of the imperial power in her heart, Huiyun did not show it at all.

She smiled and looked at Emperor Yong'an, and politely reminded him:

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. The God has said that no matter who comes today, they must line up to burn incense. You came too late, so it is difficult for me to arrange it."

Emperor Yong'an gritted his teeth secretly.

What a great God of Deliverance!

Even the maid beside her dared to disrespect him like this.

But how could he dare to get angry now?

Before he found a way to deal with her, he could only try his best to make his respect and admiration for her known to everyone.

In this way, she had no right to kill him or usurp his throne.

He also spent a lot of money on this consecration ceremony.

He took out nearly 30% of the treasury's property as offering, just to make her satisfied.

He had shed so much blood, so how could he fail in such a small matter?

So, Emperor Yong'an pretended to be indifferent and said with a very reasonable look:

"I know the rules set by the God, so I specially asked someone to take the first seat to enter."

Everyone then realized that the person sitting in the first seat was actually a eunuch, who stood up and bowed to Huiyun.

"Master Su, I am the servant who came to help Your Majesty line up."

Huiyun lowered his eyes and thought for a moment.

The abbot did not prohibit the powerful and wealthy businessmen from purchasing positions from the common people, in order to allow the common people to earn more.

There was also no prohibition on sending servants to line up.

Therefore, Emperor Yong'an's approach is not wrong.

What's more, since they were in public, there was no need to trample on Emperor Yong'an's face.

So Huiyun followed suit and said:

"It is I who have misunderstood Your Majesty."

"Your Majesty is here in person, showing great sincerity. I will ask the young master to lead Your Majesty to offer sacrifices and burn the first incense."

This is considered to be giving face to Emperor Yong'an.

Even Emperor Yong'an himself felt a lot more comfortable.

Although the Lord Du'e did not show up to greet him, he was able to save face a little bit since there was a young master to greet him.

After a while, a little girl wearing a green Taoist robe and with her hair tied up with a golden lotus crown walked out from the direction of the main hall gracefully.

Walking closer, the little girl clasped her hands together, bowed and saluted, her voice clear but steady:

"Chen Rong from the Imperial Master's Mansion pays respect to His Majesty!"

Emperor Yong'an secretly clenched his fists.

The young master of the Imperial Master's Mansion refused to kneel, how arrogant he was!

However, he still showed a kind smile like spring breeze:

"Please stand up. I'll trouble you from now on, young master!"

The little girl was calm and polite:

"Your Majesty, please!"

Pei Xuan and others on the ground, without permission, were still kneeling on the ground with their foreheads touching the ground.

The word "Young Master" made Pei Xuan feel itchy and curious.

I really want to see what the young master looks like, so that I don't miss the opportunity by not knowing him face to face.

He was sitting in the fifth row. As long as he quietly moved half of his body and turned his head, he would be able to see the young master's appearance.

When he finally adjusted his posture, he felt as if struck by lightning when he saw the little girl standing up after the salute.

Although I haven't seen her for a year, the little girl on the stage has grown a lot taller, but her facial features have not changed much.

He recognized it immediately!

That's his cheap sister Pei Rong!

It took him a while to come back to his senses, and he was overjoyed.

This is really another village where everything is bright and clear!

Although the Jingnan Marquis’ Mansion has fallen, his own sister has actually become the young mistress of the God!

Just look at how respectful Your Majesty was to Su Changshi who was beside the Divine Lord, let alone the Young Master who had a higher status.

He will be able to act arrogantly in the capital from now on!

Pei Xuan immediately decided to find an opportunity to meet his sister later.

Even though they had some minor unpleasantness before, he is her brother, so just coaxing him will be fine.

When the time comes, he will definitely ask her to speak well of him in front of the God, and try to get the God to accept him as his vassal.

With his intelligence and talent, it would be easy for him to crush this kind of native girl.

It won't be long before he can replace her and become the young master of this glorious Imperial Master's Mansion!

The worship from Emperor Yong'an took about a quarter of an hour.

After the worship was completed, he led the ceremonial guard and the imperial guards to leave the shrine.

At this time, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and began to enter the temple to worship in an orderly manner.

There are five main halls in total, each enshrining a statue of the Five Elements God.

Therefore, the five elements offerings also need to be placed in each hall according to their corresponding attributes.

Of course, if there are no offerings, it is also OK to simply burn a stick of incense and worship.

If there are offerings, there will be a Taoist priest who will specifically register the list of items, as well as the believer's name and family background.

Looking at the offerings presented by the Zhang family, as well as the various priceless five-element offerings that had not yet been put away in the hall, Pei Xuan became more and more fascinated by the God of Du'e.

When he becomes the young master and inherits the shrine, these will be his!

However, he did not dare to act arrogantly now and worshipped the statues in every temple very devoutly.

Then he went to an inconspicuous place, found a Taoist priest who was sweeping the floor, gave him a gold ingot, and said to him:

"Please inform the young master that his brother Pei Xuan is here to see her!"

Although this Taoist priest sweeping the floor was originally just a servant in the Imperial Master's Mansion.

But the reputation of the God made ordinary people even more awed, and no one dared to violate the rules set by Su Changshi.

"Sir, please take the gold back. I will report to the young master immediately!"

Having said that, he dropped the broom and went to look for someone.

Not long after, Pei Xuan was led to a garden far away from the Taoist Palace and entered a pavilion.

At this time, his young master's sister was already standing in the pavilion waiting.

Pei Xuan immediately greeted him with a happy and concerned smile:

"Sister, I didn't expect to see you here. Are you doing well with the Imperial Master?"
