"The steps of the 999 steps are also known as the heavenly steps. Only the royal family can step on it."

Tang Yue gasped and turned to look down. They were more than half of the way. Only he and Prince Zhao were on the whole step. The cold wind seemed to bring them into the sky.

He thought that emperors of all ages liked to make this kind of stunt, probably for the pleasure of overlooking human beings and showing their high status.

Prince Zhao clenched his hand and led him up. The more he went up, the colder it was. However, Tang Yue could not feel it at this time, and sweat came out from his clothes.

"Only the royal family can climb the steps. Is there no servant in the ancestral temple? There are always cleaning people, aren't they? "

"There are people who serve their ancestors in ancestral temples. They are usually demoted to this place or voluntarily filial piety for their mistakes. They stay with the Green Lantern and never go down the mountain all year round."

Tang Yue felt that it was no different from being in prison. The place seemed grand and glorious, but it was full of cold attics and more icy tablets. What's the difference between living in such a place and becoming a monk?

It's not too much to say about the 999 steps, but it's hard to climb them all at once. Tang Yue looked at the young man who didn't change his face and said with a smile, "has there ever been a bride who fell down in the middle of her life before?"

Prince Zhao turned his head to see him, and also showed a chuckle, "naturally there are, but the woman who can't pass this test is not qualified to be a crown prince or queen."

Tang Yue touched the sweat on the tip of his nose and took a deep breath. "So, in case I fall?" Is this marriage not going to count?

"If you are alone, how can you let Qing fall?" Prince Zhao lifted up his sleeve to wipe the sweat off Tang Yue's forehead, and then he kissed him on the cheek, and then squatted down in front of him.

"Come on, go up alone!"

Tang Yue laughed and patted him on the back, "don't make a fuss. It's not to this extent."

As a man, if you really want to let people carry up the mountain, it is not his face to lose.

He pushed Prince Zhao aside and stepped up the steps to finish the long test.

Prince Zhao didn't insist. They went on and off, and finally climbed to the top of the mountain in an hour. Tang Yue was shocked and speechless.

Standing at the foot of the mountain and looking up, he only felt that the temple was magnificent. Standing in front of it, he actually felt like he was in a fairyland, and he had become a tiny dust that could not be smaller.

He exclaimed, "how is this done? Are all the stones and trees here transported from the foot of the mountain? " How much manpower and material resources and time will it take to complete this feat?

"What do you think?" Prince Zhao pinched his palm. "There are many trees and boulders on this mountain, but it takes a lot of manpower, and it takes two generations of kings to build this ancestral temple."

"Please enter the palace with your highness and the princess!" An old voice interrupted Tang Yue's emotion. He followed the voice and saw two rows of men and women of different ages standing outside the gate.

They were dressed in plain colored long shirts, with wide sleeves and wide waists. Their hair was as high as a Taoist priest. Their faces were calm, and they were as peaceful as Sudan.

These are probably the Royal people who serve in the ancestral temple all the year round.

Only from them, Tang Yue could not feel a little smoke and fire, nor was he a prince's son. Tang Yue's impression of the royal family should be like Prince Zhao, who is magnanimous and intelligent, or like Prince Xian, ambitious, magnanimous and calculating, or arrogant and arrogant. It should not be the indifference between people.

Prince Zhao led Tang Yue to kowtow outside the door, and then led him into the main hall. Compared with the magnificent appearance, the inner hall of the ancestral temple was filled with smoke. The two rows of gold tablets in front of the temple were opposite to each other, making it impossible to look directly at them.

It was a tedious procedure: Reciting sacrificial words, worshipping three times and knocking nine times, listening to the old Uncle Wang reciting his long blessing and warning. When they walked out of this temple like temple, it was already dark.

"It's going to snow." Prince Zhao wrapped Tang Yue with thick fur and touched his cold cheek, "go down the mountain, tired for a day, go back to have a good rest."

Tang Yue looked back at the closed door again. "Is it cold all year round on this mountain? Can their bodies endure?"

After all, Tang Yue is a doctor, and the only thing that matters is the age of Prince Zhao. The boy who is only 15 years old is undoubtedly a child in Tang Yue's eyes, even if he is mature in all aspects and can not be mature any more.

"Here we are. What are you thinking?" The special volume of Prince Zhao wakes Tang Yue. He opens his eyes and subconsciously outlines the corner of his mouth.

"Thinking about how to spend the night." Tang Yue said bluntly.

Prince Zhao's eyes changed, staring straight at Tang Yue's eyes, and then his eyes gradually reached Tang Yue's lower abdomen from top to bottom.

Tang Yue's lower abdomen tightened, subconsciously tightened his legs, and then moved away from Prince Zhao, tidied up his messy hair, and then put his hair crown on.

Prince Zhao pursed the corners of his mouth for a while, and slightly tilted upward. His eyes exuded a look of joy and ridicule. "If you don't want to, you can wait alone."This is really a great tolerance to Tang Yue. Tang Yue is hard to be moved if he wants to be moved. "Your Highness is tired today. It's better to Hey, let's have a rest earlier? And your highness must drink wine at night. How nice it would be to go to bed when you are drunk

Prince Zhao extended his legs, a hand against the forehead, rarely show ruffian general smile, "lonely territory, who dares to intoxicate lonely?"

The carriage had stopped. Tang Yue didn't want to continue discussing this topic with him, so he jumped off the carriage and scared the crowd waiting outside the carriage.

Xu Taifu did not agree to remind him: "prince princess, you are in front of the minister, how can you go ahead?"

Tang Yue knew these rules. When walking with people higher than himself, he must be at least half a step behind in order to show respect. If he is in front of the monarch, he must never face him with his butt.

Tang and Yue usually do as the Romans do, and they are very strict with rules in front of outsiders. Only in front of their own people will they ignore these rules and regulations.

He secretly pinched his sweat and was about to say two good words to deceive him when he heard Prince Zhao's voice coming from behind, "Gu Jun, Tai Fu doesn't need to worry about it."

I don't care about him. What are you talking about?

Xu Taifu retorted, "Your Highness, etiquette can not be abolished!"

"Does Taifu have to discuss etiquette on a lonely day of great joy?" Prince Zhao sank his face and was unhappy.

Xu Taifu was a young gentleman. He taught him how to write and hyphenate, but he was a bit pedantic. I'm afraid the king sent him to preside over the wedding ceremony so as not to make mistakes.

Prince Zhao originally preferred the princess of hengguo to hold the wedding ceremony. On the one hand, the Duke of hengguo appreciated Tang Yue, and on the other hand, he could also boost Tang Yue's face.

Xu Taifu is a good official, but he has no personal relationship with Tang Yue. Naturally, everything comes with a straight eye.

In a dilemma, he looked around and bowed down to make a bow. He changed the topic and said, "it's getting late. Your highness and the crown princess should enter the mansion. The guests have been waiting for a long time."

Seeing that he couldn't make it, Tang Yue was embarrassed to get up and returned a courtesy to him, "the more tired and confused, thank you for reminding Xu Taifu."

Xu Taifu did not expect that Tang Yue would take the initiative to admit that he was wrong. He comforted him and said, "no wonder the Tang family's little Lang Jun can enter the prince's eyes. This open-minded mind is precious."

Tang Yue himself is not a arrogant person. No matter how much capital is given to him, he is also the same. This is the inner essence of a person, which can be said to be a person's education.

It's no wonder that some people say that the little husband of Marquis of queryang doesn't want to be from the countryside. How can he bring up his temperament and conversation if he is not a high-ranking family?
