It's hard to guess the concubine: the black-bellied prince chases his wife

Chapter 499 Opening the Mausoleum and Sacrifice
The first thing that catches the eye is the majestic gate of the imperial mausoleum, which is higher than the gate of the palace city. The base is covered with red lacquer in seconds, and two golden dragons are hovering upwards, waving their five claws vividly. , as if to soar above the clouds.

Inside the door is a high step, which is higher than the steps leading to the Dragon Hall, and the top of the step can be vaguely seen, and the altar has been visited.Perhaps the biggest difference between this place and the imperial city lies in this. There has never been such an altar at the gate of the palace in the imperial city.

Yu Changliu took the lead, and everyone bowed under the altar for three times before standing up and going up to the altar.Walking up the altar is not allowed to stop, so no matter how tired Yu Changliu was, he did not dare to stop, and walked up the steps piously step by step.

It's just that he walked slowly, and the people behind followed him slowly.In fact, Ye Ziyi really hoped that he could walk faster, after all, it was midsummer, although it was still morning, but the sun was shining brightly, she already felt that she was sweating.

And for such a formal occasion, even though they all wore plain clothes, they didn't dare to neglect in the slightest.The heavy clothes were already soaked and sticky with sweat, and the dark clothes worn by the ministers were even more uncomfortable.

But Yu Changliu is indeed old, and his physical strength can't keep up. The higher he goes, the slower he walks.Even with the queen and Yu Mu Zhuo supporting him, when he climbed up to the altar, he was already sweating profusely and out of breath.

Except for Yu Changliu, Yu Muzhuo and the queen, no one else was allowed to go up to the highest level of the altar.

So Ye Ziyi and Yu Muheng, like other ministers, knelt on the steps below the altar.Ah Han seemed to be a little uncomfortable from the sun, twisting his body in Ye Ziyi's arms, and after handing him over to Yu Muheng, this heartless little bun stopped twisting.

The first ritual of offering sacrifices to heaven is to kneel, even an emperor like Yu Changliu needs to kneel.After knocking three times in the direction of the imperial mausoleum, he and Yu Mu Zhuo burned the first incense stick together, hoping for good weather in the next three years.

When you kowtow for the second time toward the imperial mausoleum, you have to kowtow six times.The second stick of incense is intended to hope for the blessing of the ancestors.But as soon as the second stick of incense was inserted into the sacrificial tripod, the wind blew up, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the small red light spot of the incense. After it was clearly extinguished, fortunately, the wind died down soon. The incense also stabilized and was not blown out.

For the third time, it was natural to bow nine times in the direction of the imperial mausoleum.The third stick of incense is intended to hope that the world will be peaceful, the war will stop, and the people will be happy and healthy.The three sticks of incense were successfully placed on the sacrificial tripod, and Yu Changliu breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, what the ministers need to participate in is such a short ceremony.After that, Yu Changliu will go to the imperial tomb to worship his ancestors in person, and the ministers only need to wait at the gate of the imperial tomb.Of course, this time, one of the important things Yu Changliu had to do to worship his ancestors was to see what happened to the divine stone.

According to the agreement, after Yu Muheng stepped down from the altar, he handed over the soldier talisman to Yu Muzhuo, and Yu Muzhuo accompanied Yu Changliu into the imperial tomb.

After handing Ahan to Biling, Yu Muheng also took Ye Ziyi into the imperial tomb.But what they entered was not the Zhengling, but the Feiling next to it, and they were going to worship Yu Muheng's biological mother, Concubine Zhao.
