The news of the new main dance was soon spread all over the harem, and Xiao Jinshao also knew it.
But not in mind.
Recently, there are not many things in Dali temple. The emperor asked him to go to the Ministry of rites to help him. It's not his turn to do big things, and trivial things are a headache. He's so busy these days that he's confused.
Until the day before the ceremony, everything was ready, he was completely free.
Early in the morning, he went back to the house of marquis Anle and went to sleep. Jun Yuwan didn't ask him to make up for his sleep, so he went to the afternoon.
After washing his face and eating, Xiao Jinshao held hot tea in his chair and felt alive.
Jun Yu Wan is looking at the clothes to be worn at tomorrow's sacrificial ceremony. She is always worried about the clothes sent by the palace.
Sure no problem, she was relieved and rubbed her eyes, "Your Highness has been working hard recently. As soon as the ceremony is over tomorrow, you can have a good rest."
Xiao Jinshao nodded, "yes. I hope nothing happens tomorrow. "
It turns out that nothing happened at the ceremony and everything went well.
The people gathered around the altar and watched the emperor lead the officials to worship. They also knelt down, looking very devout.
Zhuoyou, the eminent monk of Tao, is a temporary national teacher. He is very kind to the common people. He sits on the high platform, overlooking the people below, with a calm and peaceful manner.
When the emperor finished the incense, the dance of praying for rain began. He was wearing a plain white wide sleeve robe with loose hair, holding a wicker in his hand and dancing barefoot on the drum.
At the end of the dance, she led the dancers to the emperor, knelt down, held the wicker in her hands, and raised it over her head, "the gods protect me, so that I can have a smooth weather and a peaceful country."
The emperor reached for it and read the scriptures which others did not understand.
A quarter of an hour later, the sky, which was originally cloudless, slowly darkened.
Dark clouds piled up in the sky, cool wind suddenly, people boiling, "it's going to rain, it's going to rain!"
"Is that too effective? God bless me
"God bless Dayan!"
People began to kowtow consciously, cheering one after another.
The emperor looked at the scene with satisfaction and looked at the worry on the high platform. The day of the ceremony was calculated by worry. He said that there must be heavy rain today!
At the beginning, the emperor was dubious, until now, his eyes are not the same! This is really an eminent monk!
Zhuoyou naturally noticed his sight, but he didn't open his eyes. He was still concentrating on chanting sutras. Until the rain was getting bigger, he stood up and said in a loud voice, "Amitabha, there will be a heavy rain in an instant. Please go back quickly."
After this incident, zhuoyou's position in the hearts of the people became higher and higher, and he surpassed the emperor, but the emperor did not feel it.
He raised his feet to go down from the high platform. The pity in front of him just got up, and he staggered at his feet and jumped straight at the emperor.
The emperor reached out and took the man in his arms.
Pity closed his eyes, his face turned white, and he was obviously in a coma.
The emperor lowered his eyes and looked at the face so closely. He had a strange feeling in his heart, sour and sweet. He obeyed his instinct and lifted the man up and down the stage.
Xiao Jinshao and Jun Yuwan look at this scene with different thoughts.
"Your Highness, do you think this pity will become the second imperial concubine?"
Xiao Jinshao squinted, "it depends on whether she has that ability."
