Chapter 109 Wedding (3)

Fortunately, they didn't dare to look up at this time, so no one would see their actions.

The place of offering sacrifices to heaven is very high, with 99 steps.

On the top is a circular mound, surrounded by red walls and green tiles.

A few months ago, the round mound was actually covered with dust, and no one cleaned it.

Because since Emperor Tianqin came to the throne, he has never used Yuanqiu, nor worshiped heaven and earth, he doesn't believe in these things, he only believes in himself.

However, this is just the past. He is a very strange person. He didn't believe in it before, but now he takes the initiative to do it.

Following the sound of the ritual officer's voice, the two stood on one side and lowered their heads, put their hands together and pushed out from their hearts, maintaining this movement without moving.

The following courtiers are all like this.

After the ritual officer's voice fell, the two of them put down their hands and walked to the middle.

I pray to God.

Second worship.

Three thanks to each other.

Standing on one side, the officer of ceremonies was shocked to see that His Majesty deliberately enlarged the curvature of his waist, which was almost at the same level as Gu Niangniang. His anxious forehead was covered with sweat, but he didn't dare to correct his mistakes at this time, he just pretended not to see.

Afterwards, the emperor and empress just stood at the top, and several senior ministers took turns to come up and read out the articles that had already been written.

The content of the article is probably the same as the congratulatory speech, except that some words of worshiping heaven and earth are interspersed from time to time, and God will definitely bless your majesty.

When saying this, Shen Ji was actually very guilty.

He was a veteran of the two dynasties, so he had experienced many sacrifices to the heavens under the late emperor, but he swore on his life that he never once offered sacrifices to the heavens like His Majesty.

After listening to the words for a long time, Gu Ruzhen finally understood why she had to change her hair accessories. If it was the big phoenix crown before, she would be too tired after standing for a while.

Emperor Tianqin was also very anxious and impatient, so he turned unfriendly to the old officials.

Several old ministers were on their backs, but they had to speak out the articles they had prepared, so they could only speed up and read quickly.

The courtiers standing on the steps felt that something was wrong, and quietly raised their heads to take a look, but soon, they lowered their heads again.

If it is not in accordance with the etiquette system, it is not in accordance with the etiquette system. Anyway, His Majesty has done a lot of things that are not in line with the etiquette system. This is not bad.

Walking down the steps, the sky was already sinking. Unlike the tired courtiers, Emperor Tianqin was very energetic.

He ordered people to send all the courtiers outside the city gate, and he took them to Shengning Palace.

Ruotong had already prepared a lighter wedding dress, which Gu Ruzhen had never seen before, so she couldn't help being a little surprised.

To remove the makeup on her face, Ruotong picked up a porcelain bottle and wiped some ointment on both sides of the woman's wrists, smiled and said, "This servant just found out that it was sent by Zhao Siyi today."

There is no embroidery on it, but there seems to be faint dark patterns on the fabric. Under the candlelight, every inch of the fabric seems to have a streamer, which is amazingly beautiful.

The crown and pearl hairpin were taken off, and the long hair was tied into a slightly lighter Chaoyun Jinxiang bun. On the top of the bun, two red flowers were tied, and the tassels hanging down had three strands. , but only as long as a finger.

It trembles as it walks, which is very cute.

In addition, the broken hair was fixed with golden hairpins.

Zhao Siyi also sent a hijab with red tassels on the four corners. Ruotong thought about it, and used two small hairpins to pass through the middle of the hijab, and then fixed it at the bun on the back of her head.

In this way, it is very beautiful to hang on the back when it is not covered, and it is also convenient to lift it up when it needs to be covered.

"I'll show you around."

If you look carefully, you will find that Shengning Palace is located in the middle of the imperial city. Compared with the previous Ganlu Palace, Shengning Palace is closer to the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

It was almost like going out from Shengning Palace, and after walking for more than a quarter of an hour, we arrived at the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

This palace rising from the ground is a dream that women who lived in the imperial city could never dream of in their lifetime.

Even the Empress Dowager Dong, who has gradually lost her mind and doesn't care about other world affairs, is the same. It would be a real lie to say that she is not envious.

The first emperor just glanced at it a little bit more when he thought it was fresh, and told these concubines to be like moths to the flame without complaint or regret, not to mention His Majesty's temperament.

It turns out that His Majesty's ruthlessness is better than the late emperor's passion. Ruthlessness will hurt oneself, but passion will hurt many people for a long time.

With the support of Nanny Xu, she walked to the door, watching the dusk sinking, and the beautiful flowers blooming in the garden not far away, her eyes swept across the bedroom where Mrs. Lin lived, and suddenly many Emotion welled up in my heart.

Shengning Palace is not extravagant, but everything is very delicate.

There are three main halls and four side halls.

The main hall in the middle is the place where the two of them usually live. When introducing the two sides, Emperor Tianqin's tone paused, and the thick-skinned before seemed a little uncomfortable, and he said vaguely, "The two rooms on the left and right are of great use. of."

Although the main hall between the east and west sides and the middle is not far away, it takes a while to get there.

As for the other four side halls, one is used as a study room, one is used as a storeroom, and the other is used as a dining room. The last side hall is a bit larger, and there are many separate rooms in the side hall, which are used for the palace people of Shengning Palace. live.

"How is it?" Emperor Tian Qin easily picked her up and put her on a beauty couch, and looked at her seriously.

Seeing this, Ruotong wisely led the rest of the palace people outside.

But they didn't go very far, after all, it was not completely dark yet, and His Majesty and Empress hadn't eaten yet.

Gu Ruzhen looked at the man sitting beside her, and unconsciously stretched out her hand to touch his face, "I like it very much."

I don't know whether the liking in her mouth is referring to this Shengning Palace or the person who ordered the construction of Shengning Palace.

Emperor Tianqin thought for a while, only thinking that she meant both things.

He bent slightly so that she could touch his cheek effortlessly.

The two of them didn't speak after that, they just looked at each other like a pair of dumb geese, and only blinked once after a long time.

If Ruotong hadn't seen the two of them outside for a long time at the door, worried that the two masters were hungry and coughed lightly, the two of them could see the green hills that never grow old, as if they were forever.

"Come in." Emperor Tianqin opened his mouth.

Ruotong came in with a little guilty conscience, kept walking with her head down, when she heard the word "set the meal", she responded and trotted out almost eagerly.

In the evening when the imperial dining room was prepared, the dishes were prepared according to the timing. After they were ready, the dishes were placed in wooden boxes, and hot charcoal was placed under the wooden boxes.

There were only a few special dishes that had to be freshly cooked before eating, so after Ruotong went to give orders, several imperial chefs were very busy, and they worked together to finish all the dishes within a quarter of an hour.
