He is the creator's fault

That night, there was a turmoil in the palace. The Qiankun Palace where Emperor Sui lived was surrounded by Jinyiwei. The dying Emperor Sui sat on the dragon chair and watched Dugushe walk up to him.

"Father, you are already old, you shouldn't worry about court affairs, my son will send you out of the palace to live up to your old age."

"You, you rebellious son, how dare you seek the throne!"

"Father is determined to go his own way, and this minister has no choice but to make a bad plan."

"You are treating my Dugu clan's country as a trifling matter! How can you be worthy of your ancestors?"

"Father, the words are serious. I have conquered most of the country. It doesn't matter if it is ruined. What has it to do with the ancestors?"

"you you--"

Suihuang was very angry. He should have no regrets in his life to see the Sui Kingdom uniting the world, but Yao's existence was like a thorn in his heart, and he would feel uneasy every day he didn't get rid of it.

Now his happiest son is still fighting against him because of this evil star. Suihuang seemed to have seen the day when the prophecy would come true, and lost all energy and spirit, and died just like that on the dragon chair.

Emperor Sui died.

That night the news spread inside and outside the palace, the whole country mourned together, the funeral ceremony was grand and grand, after all the pomp and circumstance were over, more than half a month had passed, followed by Dugu She's enthronement ceremony.

The night before the enthronement ceremony, Yao was summoned into Qiankun Palace.

Pushing open the heavy door, Yao walked into the hall and saw Dugushe sitting in the center of the hall, drinking by himself. There were no candles in the hall, and the light was a little dim. Fortunately, the moonlight was not bad tonight, and he could barely see.

"You're here, have a drink with Gu."

Dugushe poured Yao a glass of wine, but Yao didn't drink it directly this time, seeing Yao's hesitation, Dugushe shook the glass.

"Don't worry, the wine this time is just green bamboo stuffing, you'll be fine if you drink it."

Yao took a sip, the wine still smelled of bamboo, it didn't burn the mouth, and the taste was not bad.After finishing the drink, Yao put down the glass and looked up at Dugushe.

"I don't know why His Highness summoned the grassroots?"

"I would like to ask you, would you like to be the queen of Gu?"

Yao's heart sank.

"What is the meaning of this, Your Highness?"

"Gu once promised you the position of the national teacher, now I let you make a choice, is it for the empress or the national teacher?"

If it was only such a choice, Yao would choose the national teacher without hesitation, but he knew that Dugushe would never give him such a simple choice. Sure enough, Dugushe continued to say: "If you are the queen, Gu will definitely be favored by three thousand people." Collected in you, even the world can be shared with you."

"What if I become a national teacher?"

Dugushe fell silent, poured himself a glass of wine, and a voice came faintly:

"Then you can't leave the Star Observatory for the rest of your life, and you can't see anyone other than Gu. This is not what Gu wants to see. I hope you can think about it."

As soon as the auspicious time chosen by Qin Tianjian arrived, the bells and drums rang, and Dugu She, wearing a dark-colored gown, climbed up to Chaoyang Gate and began to pray. This kind of pattern, including the sun, moon and stars, is solemn and majestic, showing the emperor's posture.

When the emperor prayed, the officials stood in the square outside the Meridian Gate in formal attire, the civil servants knelt on the east side of the imperial road, and the military officers knelt on the west side of the imperial road, quietly listening to prayers.

When the prayer was over, the new national teacher Yao stepped up to the Chaoyang Gate with the imperial edict in his hand. He was wearing a white national teacher robe, and the long hem was dragging on the steps. There is a sense of mystery in it.If Li Yanting was here, he would be able to recognize that this is exactly what he asked Ling Xiao to investigate, but it is a pity that he did not find out when he died.

At this time, Yao's brows and eyes were cold and his temperament was high-spirited. The national teacher's robe was just right on him, adding a touch of abstinence. He unfolded the edict, and Yao began to read the content of the edict.

"The former emperor collapsed suddenly, and returned to the Five Elements. He inherited the order of the emperor's family, the Hongxiu of the sage, and the last order of the Zhenming emperor. He belonged to the order of ethics and entered Fengzong..."

Standing beside Yao, Dugushe saw Yao's lips open and close, and his cold voice came into his ears. The feeling of deja vu came out again, and he saw the man in white standing above the nine heavens in a trance, with long black hair hanging down and his clothes flying...

"Your Majesty, it's time for the officials to greet you."

Yao's voice brought Dugu back to his senses. He watched Yao seal the edict into the golden box, and stretched out his hand towards Yao. Still put his hand in Dugushe's palm.

Dugushe led Yao into the Chaoyang Palace, and walked straight to the high dragon chair. After the emperor sat down, all civil and military officials entered in order of their official positions.The Jin Yiwei sounded his whip, the general rolled up the curtain, and the officials of the regular ceremony shouted their salutes, and the officials began to perform five prostrations and three kowtows.

"Long live, long live, my emperor."

Yao stood next to Dugushe, and enjoyed the pilgrimage with Dugushe. After the ceremony, the entire enthronement ceremony finally officially came to an end.

After the banquet, Yao returned to the Star Observation Building, and the disciples of the Shrine respectfully saluted him. Yao sat down tiredly at the table, and waved to the disciples.

"Stand back, I'm tired."

"The disciple retire."

The door of the palace was closed, Yao poured himself a cup of tea, stood up after drinking, and started to take off the complicated robes of the national teacher, leaving only his underwear, Yao walked into the hot spring pool in the inner room, his body was wrapped by the water flow With that, a lot of fatigue dissipated, and Yao unconsciously leaned against the pool wall and fell asleep.

I don't know how long it took, footsteps sounded in the inner hall, someone walked around the screen, Yao was awakened, looked up, and found that it was Dugushe, who was still wearing court clothes, smelling of alcohol.

The water in the hot spring pool is very clear, and you can see the bottom at a glance when you stand on the shore. Now it is too late for Yao to get up and get dressed, so he hurriedly called out to stop Dugushe.

"Your Majesty, I'm not wearing an inch of my hair. I'm afraid I'll stain my holy eyes. Please wait outside for a while, and I'll come when I put on my clothes."

Dugushe paused, saw Yao leaning against the pool wall, with wet hair hanging down his back, exposing round shoulders, and nodded after a long silence.

"......it is good."

Dugu shot it out, Yao immediately got up and tore off the robe on the shelf, without wiping the water on his body, he put it on and walked out barefoot.

Dugushe was leaning on the soft bed, drowsy, and saw Yao walking out from the inner room, wrapped in the moisture after bathing, the soft robe was loosely worn on him, and his shoulders were slightly wet, Clinging to the skin, the belt is tied and seems to unravel with a slight tug.

Yao ignored Dugushe's scrutinizing gaze, poured a cup of tea from the table and brought it to Dugushe.

"Wake up with a cup of tea."

Dugushe reached out to take the teacup, but held Yao's hand together. Yao looked at him with cold eyes. After a moment of stalemate, Dugushe let go of his hand and took the teacup, complaining in a low voice.

"mean."

Yao pretended not to hear, and sat down opposite Dugushe.

"Why did the emperor come to the Star Observatory so late?"

"Come and see you, if you change your mind now, Gu can still let you out."

"..."

Yao drank his tea without saying a word, his life was not long, it was the same wherever he stayed.

Winter is coming and spring is coming, expecting the chilly spring to replace the cold snow, Yao sits on the stargazing pavilion, watching the snow on the branches melt little by little, the tea stove in front of him has been turned on several times, the heat is lingering, and the room is full of tea fragrance.

"My lord, the clothes to be worn in the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven have been delivered."

A disciple's voice sounded outside the door, and Yaotou responded without replying.

"Put it down."

Sui Kingdom's grand ceremony to sacrifice to heaven, once every Jiazi, must be divined and prayed by the national teacher. Even Dugu She cannot change it at will. Yao thought of this when he made the choice.

After three years, he finally had the chance to go out.

Poured himself a cup of steaming tea, Yao gently blew off the water vapor, and his indifferent eyebrows and eyes slowly relaxed.

"I hope Dugu She will like it, I will give him a big gift."

......

Soon it was the day of the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven. Yao changed into the complicated robes of the national teacher, and stepped out of the Star Observation Building where he had been imprisoned for a long time. A luxurious carriage with white curtains was parked at the door.

"My lord, please."

The carriage drove out of the shrine, joined the emperor's guard of honor, and walked towards the holy mountain hundreds of miles away from Xingcheng. In addition to civil and military officials, there were also disciples of the shrine who presided over the sacrifice to heaven, surrounded by the army led by General Yang .

A group of people walked for half a month to reach the holy mountain. The holy mountain is facing the sea. There is an altar on the mountain. Standing on the altar, you can see the vast sea. to live here.

The residence of the national teacher is on the far right side of the palace, close to the sea. Yao stood on the long steps in front of the door and looked at the sea. At this time, the wind is calm, but he doesn’t know if there will be a huge wave in the next second. The weather on the sea is always unpredictable.

"looking at what?"

Dugushe came over from behind, followed Yao to the sea.

"Look at the sea."

"Do you know there is another legend about this sea?"

"What legend?"

"It is rumored that there is a fairy island hidden in the endless sea. The island is full of gods. The gods know astronomy and geography, but they have nothing to do with the world. Later, when the emperor heard about it, he went to the island to ask questions. The secret of world domination, the god told him, the secret lies on the island.

So the emperor united other countries to invade and occupy the fairy island, and slaughtered all the immortals on the island, but he did not find the so-called secret. He only discovered the divination technique practiced by the immortals. Learn a little bit, relying on this superficial ability, the emperor finally unified the world..."

After hearing what Dugushe said, Yao sighed with emotion.

"What an absurd story, since it is a god, how could it be slaughtered by mortals?"

"Yes, the story is absurd, but sometimes the facts are even more absurd than the story, what do you think?"

Yao remained silent.
