Chapter 1613 Pseudo Emperor
In the Heavenly Palace, there were already four or five hundred people in the square. Although there were quite a few people, it did not seem crowded in the empty square in front of the hall. After Xuanzhen Dao Sect arrived at the Heavenly Palace, he passed through the square and arrived in front of the hall. He saw Chi Liandian and nodded to Chi Liandian on the Bagua Platform. Chi Liandian also bowed his hand, and there was no conversation between the two sides.
Xuanzhen Dao Sect had no intention of stopping. The Taoists went up the steps and walked to the Heavenly Dao Hall. They had already opened the gate of the Heavenly Dao Hall. A group of Taoists carried Xuanzhen Dao Sect into the Heavenly Dao Hall.
"The Lord of the Lord has not entered the hall yet, but this old Taoist priest is earlier than the Lord." Yuan Chongshang sneered: "The Taoist priests of the Changsheng Dao are becoming more and more distorted now."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw more than a dozen Taoist priests coming out of the hall again. The dozen Taoist priests worked together to lift a copper cauldron. Although they combined the power of more than a dozen people, the copper cauldron was very huge, and the strength of these Taoist priests was obviously quite large.
Then several people carried a long golden table and placed it behind the bronze tripod. On the square, many people were watching the performance of the art troupe on eight platforms. When they saw the movement in front of the Heavenly Dao Hall, they all looked at each other. Many people immediately thought that the decoration table must be for sacrifice to the sky.
At this moment, another commotion sounded, everyone was dazzled, and they turned around again, but saw another team of people coming from outside the palace, and someone sang loudly: "Your Highness the Crown Prince is here!"
The people present heard the sound and looked at each other. Many people were surprised. Although everyone knew that the emperor was in Hexi, few people knew that the prince had also come to Hexi and would appear at this time.
The prince was the crown prince of the empire. When he heard that the prince had arrived, no one dared to neglect. The people in the square had already knelt down and bowed their heads. The art troupes on the eight stages also quickly stopped the performance and knelt down to the prince on the stage.
At this time, Zhao Quan was wearing a strong outfit, pushing the prince's wheelchair. The prince was wearing a formal outfit, wearing a crown and a hat, with clear eyebrows and eyes, and was powerful without anger. On the edge of the wheelchair, there was a glass wearing a pink cloak, combed with a palace bun. Under the cloak, there was a blue dress. Her steps were light, like a flowing cloud floating beside the prince, graceful and graceful. On this vast and atmospheric square, she looked even more beautiful and graceful.
Chu Huan also saw the prince and Liuli who suddenly appeared by the window. After the prince arrived in Hexi, his whereabouts were very secret and not made public. Chu Huan did not expect the prince to come. When he saw Liuli next to the prince, he frowned slightly. He did not think of the bond with Liuli at this time, but suddenly thought that this birthday ceremony for the heavens would come, all the ones that should not come. This birthday ceremony for the heavens seemed to be joyful, but undercurrents were surging. He already felt that today's birthday ceremony would not be completed smoothly.
When Chi Liandian saw the arrival of the prince, he had already come to welcome Yuan Chongshang. Mei Long, the governor of Hujin Road, suddenly appeared and came to the prince's side.
The three governors arrived in front of the prince and saluted them all. The prince smiled and said, "Today's ceremony, the three governors gathered together, and many state affairs can be solved this time." Looking at Chi Liandian, he said, "The Dians have finally arrived."
"I will come to the emperor's will after receiving the will." Chi Liandian bowed and said, "Your Highness has always been good?"
The prince smiled and said, "I am nothing, it's just that the Dianshui is stationed in Liaodong and has been through the weather and frost...!" He sighed, "I haven't seen Dianshui for many years, and Dianshui seems to be getting older again."
Chi Liandian smiled and said, "Your Highness, I am already fifty years old, and I am over fifty years old, so I cannot allow me to continue to be young."
The prince nodded slightly and smiled bitterly: "The old ministers who followed his father to conquer the Qin Dynasty, now there are not many left. The four generals of the Qin Dynasty, now only the Dianshang is left."
"I have heard about General Lei." Chi Liandian said solemnly: "The old general is loyal to the country and is brave and heroic, and is a role model for the ministers in the world."
The prince didn't say much and said, "Let's talk about it when you enter the palace." He looked around and asked, "Have your father already entered the palace?"
"I haven't seen the Holy Lord yet." Yuan Chongshang hurriedly said.
The prince frowned slightly and looked at Juxian Palace, "Father, the dragon body is slightly ill, is it because he has not recovered yet?"
The prince was in the square, and no one dared to get up. At that moment, the prince, surrounded by several governors, slowly walked towards the Heavenly Dao Hall.
At noon, the string music sounded, and finally there was a movement in the direction of Juxian Palace. The guard of honor was walking in front of him with a canopy, and a gold cart was slowly coming towards the Tiandao Hall. On the side of the gold cart, there were two people on the left and one on the right. On the left was Xuanyuan Shao with white hair as snow as snow, and on the right was Feng Yuanpo, the governor of Hexi.
After the golden cart, followed the eunuchs and palace maids, six pure white horses pulled the golden cart. On the seat were the Emperor of Qin with a crown and dragon robe and the Queen in a phoenix robe.
When the gold car arrived, the people in the square had already lined up to welcome him. One team of officials and the other team was another. According to their status, from front to back, they stood on both sides of the road paved with white marble. When the gold car approached, an official from the Ministry of Rites sang loudly: "His Majesty the Emperor and the Empress arrived..."
Hundreds of people had already knelt down, knelt on both sides of the road, and shouted in unison: "Long live my emperor, long live the Queen!"
At this time, the prince had already come out of the Heavenly Dao Hall, including Xuanzhen Daozong and Chi Liandian, who had reached the steps and stood in a row. When the golden cart came, they all came forward to worship. The prince was frigid and could only sit in a wheelchair to salute. He looked at the emperor on the golden cart. He saw that the emperor was not in a good mood, his face was a little pale, and his eyes flashed slightly. However, the queen was calm and graceful. However, when the prince's eyes fell on the queen's face, the queen did not look at him.
The queen is in her forties, but she looks like she is in her early thirties, with no signs of aging, and her temperament is luxurious. She has real emperor blood flowing. The princess of the previous dynasty and the queen of this dynasty are actually the most noble woman today, and her face is exactly matched with such dignity.
The emperor glanced at everyone, looked at the stage in the square, and finally stood up slowly, and said to the people in front of the golden car with a smile: "I... have been feeling a little uncomfortable recently. Fortunately, the day of the birthday ceremony for the birthday ceremony of heaven is already recovering. My dear friends have worked hard to celebrate the birthday ceremony of heaven. I am very pleased. I hope to be with you all for my birthday."
Everyone is thankful.
At this time, the queen had already stood up. The emperor stretched out his hand. The queen hesitated for a moment and finally handed it over and let the emperor hold it. The emperor held the queen's tenderness tightly and walked to the edge of the ladder. A eunuch and palace maid came forward. The emperor frowned and said, "Get back, I am not old enough to ask for help!"
Feng Yuanpo heard it next to the golden car, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Of course he knew that this was a fake emperor. He had been in the Immortal Palace before and did not contact others, so there was nothing big. But today it was a birthday ceremony for heaven, so the emperor naturally had to come out to accept the congratulations. In the public's eyes, if there was a mistake and someone could see the flaws, the consequences would naturally be very bad. He was still a little worried, but at this moment, he was relieved to see the fake emperor reacting like this.
Feng Yuanpo had to admit that although this fake emperor was a puppet and had a similar appearance to the real emperor, the two had a huge difference in their abilities. However, as far as acting alone, this fake emperor was not weak. I think the fake emperor knew very well that his family was all in Feng Yuanpo's hands. If there was any negligence, the one who died would be his family members, so naturally they could not be negligent.
The emperor held the queen's hand and got off the golden car. Although he was old, his aura remained unabated. He walked slowly to the prince and looked at it. The prince glanced at the queen and saw that the queen had no expression, but a tender horn was still held by the emperor. The corners of his eyes were slightly twitching, but he still bowed: "My son has seen his father!"
The emperor just said lightly: "I didn't expect that you could come to the birthday ceremony for heaven!"
"My son is here to apologize to his father's emperor himself." The prince said respectfully: "My son failed his father's expectations and lost the capital. He was extremely incompetent. He asked his father to punish him. He also begged him to summon all the ministers immediately to discuss the suppression of the thieves, send troops as soon as possible, and eliminate the rebels."
The emperor frowned and said, "I heard that the fall of the capital was not caused by the rebels of the Tianmen, but a group of mobs broke into the city. Is this a matter?"
Feng Yuanpo thought to himself that he had never told the pseudo-Emperor about the fall of the capital. The pseudo-Emperor knew about this, probably because he knew from the palace people that the news of the fall of the capital had naturally been spread to Hexi long ago. The officials who followed the emperor naturally knew that there were many people and it was not a strange thing that the incident was spread to the palace.
However, the fake emperor pretended to behave at this time and actually questioned the prince. Feng Yuan's eyebrows twitched slightly. Although he was worried that the fake emperor was at a loss, he was also worried that the acting was too overdoing, which was counterproductive. Everyone present was not a shrewd person, and hurriedly said: "Master, auspicious time is coming. I would like to ask the Master to discuss the matter in the capital later!"
He arched his body and seemed very humble, but in the eyes of others, he seemed to be helping the prince.
The emperor didn't say much, led the queen to continue walking. When he walked past the edge of the glass, the queen stopped, looked down at him, and then said softly: "Rise your head!"
Liuli raised her head, and a beautiful character face suddenly appeared in front of everyone. However, the emperor couldn't help but look over, but the queen had already said softly: "Are you Liuli who helped the prince diagnose and treat leg diseases?"
Liuli's voice was soft: "Report to the Empress, I am Liuli!"
