rebirth son of bad

The day of offering sacrifices was coming soon, and everyone went to Tiannan Mountain five days in advance, and they had to prepare some other things after arriving at the palace on the mountain.

Before dawn, Ouyang Xia and Si Yelin set off in a carriage, while Si Zhengze and Ouyang Han were carried by the nanny and sat in the carriage behind.

The gate of the capital opened, and Jin Tuan led his soldiers on horseback at the front, with the emperor and concubine Yi in the middle, Prince Jing's carriage at the back, and the confidential ministers at the back. The team marched mightily towards Tiannan Mountain.

Looking at Xiao Han's will outside, Ouyang Xia and Si Yelin said: "It should be in autumn, when the autumn is high and crisp, it is a good time for offering sacrifices. This cold winter is approaching the twelfth lunar month, and the gods may stay at home and not go out. .”

When Si Yelin heard his mischievous words, he smiled softly: "The ancestors had a difficult time in the world, in order to let the descendants remember their hardships, they specially picked a cold winter for sacrifices, and let them all know that this world is not easy, so they should cherish it. The ancestors also thought of the cold winter, so they made a special rule that there is no need to be so particular when offering sacrifices. It depends on the human body. You can wear more clothes, put cushions under your knees, and wear gloves. , pregnant women can offer incense, and there is no need to kneel down on the day of sacrifice."

"Not bad." It can be said that it is very humane, and all of it is considered.

The cold air came in from the outside, Ouyang Xia breathed out her hands, and directly took the warm bag to her arms to cover it.

Si Yelin held him in his arms and put a cloak on him so as not to freeze him.

Ouyang Xia leaned half of her body against his shoulder and said with a smile, "I feel more and more delicate."

He has been protecting and training all these years, and he will also practice martial arts with Ling Shan and Jiang Xiao. Even so, he is still tall and thin. Apart from the strong and tough muscles on his body, he is not tall and mighty. Snow's delicate skin is hard to describe in words.

It reminded him of a sentence from his previous life: with a Daji face and a bamboo body.

Si Yelin lowered his head and kissed his forehead, and said softly, "A-Xia is very good now, how about I spare time to fight with you in the future?"

Opening her eyes in surprise, Ouyang Xia said, "Really?"

To be honest, they have known each other for so long, and he hasn't competed with other men in martial arts. It is true that his martial power is far superior to him.

But in terms of close attack, he may not be much worse than Si Yelin.

Si Yelin nodded, and said: "Usually watching you compare with Ling Shan and the others, I found that your melee combat is almost perfect. Ling Shan and Ling Shui are all admired from behind. If you don't use internal strength, you are not your opponent at all. "

Both of them are busy, every day before he gets up, he goes to court early, and when he comes out of the palace, he is busy in the hospital without touching the ground, only at night can they spend warm time together.

After a tiring day, when he returned home, he just wanted to hug him and lie on the bed, so there was no need to think about the competition.

"I'm free these days, why don't we make gestures?"

During the sacrificial ceremony, he had plenty of time, and Rin couldn't be too busy. The emperor might be the most tired one.

Si Yelin held his hand and said softly: "Okay, Tiannan Mountain Palace has a huge square, and we can discuss and discuss with each other then."

"Well, that's it." Stretching out her hand, Ouyang Xia blinked at him.

Si Yelin stretched out his hand to pat him, not understanding why he liked to clap his hands, it was very strange.

But as long as he likes it, he will be happy if he holds it high.

The convoy passed all the way, and the official roads were all cleared. There were soldiers along the way to check the situation, and they approached Tiannan Mountain very smoothly.

In the afternoon, they arrived at Tiannan Mountain. Tiannan Mountain stretches for hundreds of miles. Looking around, it is majestic and majestic, and it seems that there are spirits hiding in the clouds and mist, which makes people admire.

There is a huge square at the foot of Tiannan Mountain, which is heavily guarded. Except for the day of the sacrifice, the people can enter and leave the Temple of Heaven, and the rest of the time, unless the sacrifice is over, they are not allowed to approach it.

In the square, the abbot led the monks to wait, Ouyang Xia just got off the carriage and saw the rumored Taoist priest.

The sacrifice was presided over by the rumored Taoist priest, who arrived in advance to arrange and prepare the things to be sacrificed.

Zhou Zhengdong and Si Zhengnan walked over and said with a smile: "Ah Xia, we are going to Houhu later, let's go together."

Ouyang Xia smiled lightly and said, "Okay."

They haven't been together for several days, just taking this opportunity, a few brothers get together to have fun.

Si Zhengnan said with a smile: "At this time, there is a large area of ​​plum blossoms in Houhu Lake, all of which are planted by Tianlong Temple. We can go there to enjoy the flowers and snow scenery."

"I remember a big piece."

Zhou Zhengdong has been here several times with his mother, so he naturally knows.

It is rumored that the Taoist priest saluted Emperor Yan'an: "Your Majesty has been exhausted all the way."

"The Taoist priest is the one, please trouble the Taoist priest." Seeing the rumors about the Taoist priest, Emperor Yan'an was inexplicably relieved that with him, the sacrifice would definitely go smoothly.

Rumor has it that the Taoist priest said with a smile: "There are still some things to prepare. Your Majesty will come down earlier. After all, the sacrifice will not start until ten days later."

ten days?Emperor Yan'an's face changed slightly, and seeing the meaningful smile on the Taoist priest's face, he hurriedly said with a smile: "It's all right anyway, I just want to take the children out to play."

Ouyang Xia looked at Si Yelin suspiciously, if it wasn't five days later, how could it be ten days?

Si Yelin knew that things were different, so he said coldly: "It's cold outside, let's go to the palace to rest first."

The host stepped forward at this time and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Prince, please go to the main hall to offer incense first."

According to regulations, after the emperor came here, he could not go to the palace, but had to offer incense to the main hall. As for the ministers, they could go to the palace to rest first.

Emperor Yan'an nodded, turned his head and ordered to take the little prince and princess to the palace to rest first, and the confidential ministers naturally followed him to the main hall to offer incense.

There are high steps outside the square, and up the steps is the main hall of Tianlong. The snow on both sides has been swept clean, and even the steps are wiped with a cloth to prevent His Majesty from slipping.

They climbed up the stairs, the emperor and the rumored priests and hosts walked in the front, followed by Ouyang Xia and others.

Ouyang Xia just stepped up and was pulled by his sleeves. He looked down and saw Si Zhengze looking at him with a smile on his face.

Looking at the emperor in front of him, he said softly: "Ze'er, let's go to the palace first, there are so many steps, you will be tired."

Si Zhengze shook his head, and said, "Didn't my cousin tell me that I have to be unafraid of difficulties?"

Ouyang Xia raised her eyebrows, isn't this a good performance here?

It is rumored that the Taoist priest turned his head at this time, and looked at Si Zhengze with a smile: "Let the twelve princes go too."

Emperor Yan'an stopped, and stretched out his hand towards Si Zhengze: "Ze'er, come to Emperor Father."

"I don't." Si Zhengze shook his head, and said, "My concubine asked me to come here, and told me to follow my cousin. I want to follow my cousin."

Emperor Yan'an smiled, so he stopped forcing and let him go.

When they arrived halfway, Si Zhengze was already out of breath, and this kid didn't give up, which made Ouyang Xia very satisfied.

Tianlong Temple is majestic and magnificent, with towering ancient trees standing outside the gate, the gods in the main hall standing with downcast eyes and pity for the common people, and monks standing beside them respectfully.

The emperor knelt in the center of the main hall, took the incense from the host, kowtowed to the god of heaven, and all the ministers behind him joined together.

Straightening his waist, Emperor Yan'an looked back at Si Zhengze, and said lovingly, "Ze'er, come here to offer incense to the emperor."

"Okay." Si Zhengze stood up and came to his side, taking the incense in his hand.

Emperor Yan'an picked him up, walked to the incense burner, and said softly, "Ze'er, put the incense into the incense burner."

"Okay." Si Zhengze saw Concubine Yi offering incense, and imitated the incense burner, and then clapped his hands: "Okay."

"Okay." Emperor Yan'an kissed his face, put him down, pulled him to kneel down and kowtowed again.

After the incense was finished, it was rumored that the Taoist priest invited His Majesty, Si Yelin, and Ouyang Xia to his wing. They all knew that what the Taoist priest said was probably related to the postponement of the sacrificial ceremony.

In the side room, several people sat around a table, and heard that the Taoist priest poured tea for Emperor Yan'an himself, with a serious expression: "Your Majesty must be wondering why the poor Taoist delayed the date by five days."

Emperor Yan'an stroked his beard and said seriously, "Master Daoist, is there something going to happen?"

If not, how could he delay the sacrifice of such an important person.

Rumor has it that the Taoist priest frowned, and said: "The day before yesterday, I took a divination at this time and found that there was a malevolent star approaching Tianlong Temple, and the whole area of ​​Tiannan Mountain was covered with blood."

What?Emperor Yan'an's face straightened, and he frowned and said, "What can the Taoist priest explain?"

Rumor has it that the Taoist priest shook his head, and said: "Only Zhan is evil, and it's around Tiannan Mountain. Starting today, His Majesty will send people to patrol and investigate all parts of Tiannan Mountain, especially the east side."

Si Yelin's eyes were cold, and he said, "Zhou Anliang once said that there was a demon in the Dark Dragon Pavilion. At that time, he was very arrogant. He said that if he released it, the royal family would die."

Rumor has it that the Taoist priest frowned, and said: "I have been divining the heavens for the past few days and found that there is a cloud of blood congealing in the east. I am afraid that there will be a sign of corpses everywhere."

Emperor Yan'an gasped: "It's so serious."

"If it is not handled properly, it may be more terrifying than what the poor Taoist said, so we must be cautious. These days, you must be optimistic about the princes. This is for the royal family."

Ouyang Xia thought of those mercenaries who had taken crazy drugs in the previous life, and said, "I'm afraid they are drug people."

Several people looked at him at the same time, Si Yelin asked, "What does A-Xia mean?"

Ouyang Xia didn't hide anything, and said: "You don't know, I have seen some crazy doctors before, they forced some ordinary people to take special medicine. After taking these people for a few days, they will become different from ordinary people. Qianjin, who devours blood like a demon, can defeat a hundred with one, and is extremely powerful."

Emperor Yan'an's face changed slightly: "There are still such people, so what should I do?"

Ouyang Xia said: "We need to find the location of the blood demon first. If there is such a medicine man, I'm afraid we will find a way to subdue him with many people, and then kill him. Don't try to solve it, it's useless, they are not human anymore. , but beasts, beasts without humanity."

"I hope it won't be this kind of person."

Emperor Yan'an said: "Could it be just some rebels or something?"

"Impossible." Feng Wen Taoist shook his head and said: "I think that blood cloud is weird and gloomy. I have never seen such a strange cloud in my life for decades. It is definitely not made by ordinary people. In short, these days must be warned secretly Officers be careful."

Emperor Yan'an's expression was extremely complicated, and he said, "Can we pass in five days?"

Rumor has it that the Taoist priest nodded, and said: "My divination indicates that if it lasts for five days, there will be dawn light penetrating into the dark clouds, and then the disaster will be turned into good fortune. If it is not delayed, blood will flow into rivers, and wronged souls will be everywhere, and your majesty will also be killed."

Several people looked at each other, Emperor Yan'an calmly said: "In that case, let's extend it for five more days."

Rumor has it that Taoist priests are so cautious, he must not take it lightly, but he wants to see what kind of monsters dare to disturb his sacrifices in the Shang Kingdom.
