Chapter 30 Immortal Sacrifice
…
On the day of the enthronement ceremony, the entire Kyoto was very lively, the streets were bustling with people, and the people were celebrating that the benevolent new emperor was about to take over the country.
The imperial city was even more busy, with palace maids and eunuchs walking quickly everywhere.
It was forbidden to run around in the palace. In just five days, everything needed to be prepared for the new emperor's enthronement ceremony. It was really hard work for them, but there was nothing they could do.
There are still three thousand beauties in the harem who need to be taken care of.
The new emperor also didn't know how to deal with the huge beauties left by his father. There were many concubines in it that his father had never touched, but it was inappropriate to take them over, it would be a waste to keep them, and it was inappropriate to let them out.
It really gave him a headache, and the dozens of face-to-face bosses were also a problem, and he didn't like this.
While Jiang Xuan was being served by Gong E, he gradually dressed up in his imperial robes.
Wu Xuan, Li Yu and others were standing guard outside the door.
He waited for five days, but nothing happened. He felt that King Wu had made a mistake, and even though he knew that more than 20 grandmasters were coming to protect him, he didn't know if he had other means secretly.
How strong does your head need to be to hit it?
When he ordered the eunuch to sing next to him, he waited for a long time, and when the sky was bright, he sang with a loud voice that he had practiced for two and a half years.
"The auspicious time has come!"
Worshiping ancestors, offering sacrifices to heaven, and offering sacrifices to past saints and sages. The enthronement ceremony alone would take an hour and a half for the sacrifices alone.
Play music, dance, ring bells and drums, and give banquets.
Hundreds of officials paid homage and chanted "Long live". Finally, they sat on the dragon throne, expressed their views on the late emperor, summarized it, and then elaborated on what they planned to do after ascending the throne.
Deciding on a new year's name...and other complicated things.
Fengtian Hall.
The sacrificial part of the enthronement ceremony had just ended. Wu Xuan and others were unable to go in and could only wait outside the palace. In addition to them, some of the flag-guarding troops in front of the palace controlled by the empress dowager were also allocated to guard.
All the officials in the palace knelt and sat beside the dining table, quietly waiting for the new emperor to ascend the throne.
Prime Minister Zhou looked at the Queen Mother who was sitting behind the screen. From his position, he could just meet her eyes from the side.
The moment the father and daughter looked at each other, they both nodded to each other. It was obvious that they had made all arrangements and were waiting to see if the other party would make any moves.
The difference from previous enthronement ceremonies is that.
In addition to hundreds of officials, princes and kings also arrived in Fengtian Hall. Under the calm and peaceful surface, there was a surging murderous intention and conspiracy.
The time they spent arriving in Kyoto was enough for them to form gangs and form different camps.
When it comes to conspiracy, most people can't defeat the powerful officials in the imperial court, even if the princes and kings have a large number of aides and counselors around them.
Specialization directions are different.
If the sword is drawn, it will be the place of the princes. The army is waiting outside the city at any time, but the princes will not send out the army unless it is absolutely necessary.
No one wants this political change to be stained with blood.
Except for crazy people...
at the same time.
The second prince's residence was silent in the bedroom. The sunlight penetrated through the hollow carvings on the door and shone on Jiang Hai's face, half bright and half dark.
In front of him, there is a seven-foot bronze mirror that is as tall as a human being. The fine polishing process can completely reflect his face.
In the dark environment, the side of Jiang Hai that was not exposed to the sun's rays actually shone with a terrifying red light, like blood and demon, making people's hair stand on end!
Faintly, there seemed to be a bewitching voice in the mirror that kept ringing in Jiang Hai's ears, and the air was filled with a stench like rust...
Fengtian Hall.
Jiang Xuan had just completed the sacrifice, and now it was time to ascend the throne. The emperor's throne, which represented the nine-fifth supreme emperor, was placed there. Even if he didn't care much about power, he felt a joyful and epic feeling at this moment.
"The new emperor ascends the throne, and all officials pay homage!"
The process continued to advance, but at this moment, the sky outside suddenly darkened, dark clouds enveloped the entire imperial city, drought thunder exploded, but no rain fell.
All the officials were shocked. After all, it is better to believe in the existence of gods and ghosts than in their non-existence.
"Is this...is this a sign that God is stopping us?"
"It's an ominous sign!"
As he talked, he pointed the finger at the prince Jiang Xuan who was about to ascend the throne. How many people here truly believe in it, less than 10%, everyone understands.
When Zhou Cheng saw that the meeting was not going well, he immediately stood up and scolded.
"Don't say too much about strange power and chaos. Prince, please don't delay the auspicious time of ascending to the throne. It's just a drought and thunder. How can it rise to the level of God's will?"
Upon hearing this, Prince Xuan nodded quickly and quickened his pace to prepare to go on stage.
——Boom!
Thunder fell from the sky and actually tore the dome of Fengtian Hall into pieces. Violent thunder and lightning fell in the center of the hall, scorching the ground black.
A few sparks flew everywhere, and both Prime Minister Zhou and the empress dowager were stunned to see this scene, thinking in their hearts, could God really not allow Prince Xuan to ascend the throne?
Otherwise, how could such a coincidence happen...
People who control the celestial phenomena have never been heard of.
All the officials were even more frightened. Even Prince Xuan froze on the spot and did not dare to move forward, for fear that if he made a wrong step, he would be struck to death by thunder.
King Wu, who was drinking and having fun during the banquet, finally couldn't sit still.
He also supports Jiang Xuan's succession to the throne and Zhou's regency. He has other ways to deal with it, but he can't wait any longer now.
"How dare you, Fang Xiaoxiao, to pretend to be a ghost here?!"
Li Yu, Wu Xuan and others were not deaf. They had already run in when they heard the noise. They lined up at the door and looked at the big hole above Fengtian Hall in amazement.
"Hahahahaha."
"The Immortal Way cherishes life, and there is no way to measure people."
There are really people!
In the big hole where the sky thunder fell, a man with immortal wind and a childlike face came stepping on a flying sword.
How can a warrior pretend to be like this?
Many of the officials knelt down on the spot, calling them immortals. Wu Xuan was also excited to see them. Are there really immortals in the world? Why do they appear here?
King Wu cruelly shattered everyone's imagination.
"Naochao, you crazy guy, you dare to interfere with the new emperor's enthronement, you deserve to die!"
King Jiang Wu pointed with his right hand and shook it gently.
In an instant, there was no wind in the closed Fengtian Hall, and under the control of King Wu's inner energy, a red handprint of nearly one foot was formed, holding the "immortal" in his palm.
Without saying a word, just crush it!
The man seemed to be wearing some kind of disguise. His appearance suddenly changed and he became a strange middle-aged man. He was still shouting before he died.
"Spiritual Body Technique?! No! No!!!"
Wow, rain of blood pours down...
The flying sword fell to the ground like scrap metal, and everyone was also drenched to the core.
Among the officials, Captain Cao looked at King Wu with fear in his eyes.
"Why do you need to call yourself an immortal if you have some illusions?"
"continue!"
King Wu's scolding brought everyone back to their senses. The ceremony officer did not dare to neglect and continued to preside over the ceremony.
This incident made the scene even more silent.
Prince Xuan silently sat on the dragon throne. From this moment on, he was the new emperor of the Great Li Dynasty!
Chapter completed!
