While the ladies were resting in the palace, the emperor found out that the queen had led the concubines to the Temple of Heaven to pray for blessings, and his face suddenly became ugly.

In this case, how could he sneak into the Zhai Palace through a secret passage and cross paths with Jiang Changning?

The Queen Mother also said: "She is right, the mother of a country should take her own responsibility."

The emperor could not tell the Queen Mother his dirty thoughts, so he could only go back to the Qinzheng Hall to read the book in frustration.

At the beginning of noon, the ladies were summoned to the main hall of Zhai Palace.

The queen was sitting in the middle, with concubines on the left and right sides. Jiang Changning saw Zhuang Qingyan standing very behind.

Zhuang Qingyan, who was wearing a ginger-yellow plain palace dress, looked as dull as a potato, without a trace of freshness.

Jiang Changning also saw Lu Xiujue. The dark green palace dress made her small, palm-sized face look sallow.

"Before offering sacrifices to heaven, you must fast for three days. From today on, you must wear plain clothes, eat vegetarian food, burn incense and copy out ten prayers a day." The queen said.

In this way, it is the ninth day of the first lunar month, and it is natural to offer sacrifices to God and pray for God's blessings.

The God of Heaven is the Jade Emperor, the highest god who rules the three realms, the gods in the ten directions inside and outside the three realms, and all spirits in the world. He represents the supreme heaven.

The emperor calls him the Son of Heaven, which means he recognizes the Jade Emperor as his father.

We offer sacrifices to heaven several times a year, but the one held at the winter solstice is the most solemn and respectful.

Whether it is official worship to heaven or folk worship to ancestors, they all express the simple wish to pray to heaven for good weather and abundant food and clothing.

All the noble ladies bowed and said, "I would like to obey your imperial concubine's instructions."

Vegetarian food is roughly divided into four categories: Buddhist vegetarian food, Tao vegetarian food, Gong vegetarian food and Min vegetarian food.

Buddha is the vegetarian in the temple, which pays attention to the simplicity of nature and skill and convenience.

Tao Su emphasizes yin and yang and the five elements, and is pure and true.

Gong Su means Su to support meat, elegance and wealth.

The people are vegetarian, mostly seasonal wild vegetables, simple and unpretentious.

Looking at the gorgeous bonsai-like vegetarian dishes on the table, Jiang Changning couldn't bear to put down his chopsticks, not wanting to ruin the beauty.

"Xiao Ning, why don't you eat it? The vegetarian food made by the royal chef in the palace tastes very good. Come and try it." Princess De Wang said in a low voice.

Jiang Changning smiled and took a spoon to scoop out the flower-studded tofu.

Although Baihua Tofu is named after Baihua, there are no flowers in the dish. The tofu is just made into a flower shape.

The tofu is tender and smooth without any beany smell.

Even if it is a vegetarian dish, the ingredients used by the palace are more particular than the other three vegetarian dishes.

Shigu vegetarian fish ball soup, the soup is clear, soft and fragrant.

Although no fish is used, it still tastes like fish.

Jiang Changning was quite satisfied with this vegetarian meal, and he no longer had any resistance to eating the vegetarian meal for three days in a row.

Returning to the west side of the dormitory, Jiang Changning went back to the left room to take a nap. But as soon as she lay down, she heard Zhao Xifang loudly ordering the maid in the outer hall, "You should use old sandalwood for copying scriptures."

"Go get some snow water."

"Use pine smoke ink, which is thicker."

"Wait until the snow melts before grinding again."

Zhao Xifang kept talking, making Jiang Changning unable to sleep at all.

"Princess, she did it on purpose." Fu Cui rolled up her sleeves and was about to rush out and tear people apart.

"Stop." Jiang Changning sat up.

Fu Cui is a maid, and she will suffer a loss against Zhao Xifang.

Jiang Changning put on his outer clothes and walked out, "To sing a play on the stage, you have to be born young and clean but not ugly. Princess Yu is so talented, she can sing a play by herself."

Being described as a low-level actor by Jiang Changning, Zhao Xifang said angrily: "People who grew up relying on others are indeed uneducated."

"If Princess Yu has such a fussy upbringing, it's better to be uneducated." Jiang Changning sneered, "This is a sacrificial palace, not Prince Yu's palace. Princess Yu should be more restrained in her behavior and stop yelling.

Yes, it looks too unstable and will make people question Wen He County Lord."

As for what you are questioning, there is no need to say it clearly. They are all smart people and listen to what they are told.

"Princess Jin, don't bully others too much." Zhao Xifang said angrily.

"The one who flirts first is cheap." Jiang Changning would involve the above and the county owner, and it was Zhao Xifang who first said what she cared about.

The death of both her parents was a tragic event that she did not want to be mentioned.

"Princess Yu and Princess Ningxia are just like half-sisters who go crazy and are exactly the same." Jiang Changning continued to mock.

"I was pointed at the nose by Song Yirou and cursed. I didn't dare to say a word. Then I ran in front of this princess to show off my power. Princess Yu is so powerful. Why are you using the Jin Palace as a soft persimmon?"

"Sorry, I was just in a hurry to copy the prayers and disturbed you." Zhao Xifang suddenly returned to her polite manner.

Jiang Changning was stunned for a moment. Is the Jin Palace so useful?

Zhao Xifang walked back to the table silently, picked up a pen, and began to copy the prayers.

She stopped making trouble, and Jiang Changning was not the kind of person who wouldn't let go, so he went back indoors to take a nap.

Half an hour later, Jiang Changning took a nap.

Seeing the ruddy-faced and gorgeous Jiang Changning, Zhao Xifang's eyes flashed with jealousy.

Only a woman who is loved by her husband can maintain such a delicate appearance.

How can a helpless orphan girl win the love of her husband?

"There is only one table here." Zhao Xifang said.

Jiang Changning looked at the table occupied by her, and said with a faint smile: "I am a generous person, I will let you have the table, and I will do the same with copying the long case."

Zhao Xifang pursed her lips, expecting to hear Jiang Changning say a few soft words to beg her.

But I didn't expect Jiang Changning's mind to move so quickly.

Shu Fei and Fu Cui moved the ornaments placed on the long table to another place, fetched water, and wiped the long table again, "Princess, it's ready."

Jiang Changning first purified his hands, then burned incense, sat on a long desk, and copied scriptures.

"The ceremony of returning one's ambition to one's destiny: the Supreme Milo, the supreme heaven. The wonderful and mysterious realm, the misty Purple Gold Tower, the Jade Emperor, the Great Heavenly Lord, and the high God of the mysterious sky."

If you are offering sacrifices to the Jade Emperor, it must be written at the beginning of the scripture.

The ninth day of the lunar month is the Heavenly God's Day, which is the Jade Emperor's birthday. You have to write a congratulatory message: The Jade Emperor, the Great Heavenly Lord, the Mysterious Sky High God, has a boundless holy life. May God be kind to all people, emit divine light, and illuminate the Dharma Realm.

Holy, Pu Tao Yin.

Pray for the peace of your family and country, pray for your life and overcome disasters, sweep away all misfortune, break the iron to surround the mountain, and drain the sea of ​​suffering; break the hell, remove the evil and suffering; defeat the violent demons, and protect all lands.

Pray to God to unleash the seventeen rays of supernatural power to eliminate all serious diseases, resolve all evils, stay away from all evil people, destroy all evil beasts, destroy all evil ways, and command all heavens to surrender.

There are not many words, but it still takes a lot of time to copy it ten times verbatim.

Jiang Changning copied more than half an hour behind Zhao Xifang, but they both finished writing at the same time.

"Hoo" Jiang Changning chuckled.

"Why are you laughing?" Zhao Xifang asked angrily.

"Princess Yu manages the heavens and the earth, and she still manages to make people laugh. She is really capable." Jiang Changning said, picking up the copied prayer, raising his legs and walking out.
