Translator: 549690339

The group walked out of the city for about two hours.

The security along the way was tight, showing the majesty of the imperial family.

The commoners knelt along the way, and no one dared to raise their heads.

It was not to intimidate the Emperor, but to intimidate the youth who had yet to reach the crown.

He just lazily rode behind them on his horse, and everyone felt as if something was stuck in their throats, not daring to overstep him.

Finally, when the sun was about to rise to noon, everyone stopped.

“The Imperial mausoleum is in front.” As soon as the sedan stopped, noble consort Lin helped the Emperor out.

Carriages were not allowed to enter the Imperial tombs, so they could only walk.

The weather was a little hot, but the emperor’s forehead was sweating more than the others. The handkerchief on noble consort Lin’s body was almost soaked, but fortunately, the maidservant quickly changed it.

The Imperial astronomer had already prepared everything.

“The auspicious time has come. Emperor Chong Ming of the great Zhou Dynasty will personally experience the worship to the heavens and pray for blessings.” The official of the Imperial astronomer stood on the altar and sang loudly.

The Emperor brought the princes up to the altar.

Everyone had already changed into their sacrificial clothes.

The commoners who had rushed over knelt down. They had pious expressions on their faces and their hands were clasped together. No one knew how long they had been kneeling.

The Crown Prince handed Lulu over to eunuch Lu after he got off the carriage.

Eunuch Lu brought her to an unremarkable corner of the Temple of Heaven.

The feather God was standing three steps away from her.

He looked at the altar with a dark expression. Lulu followed his gaze and it landed on Lu huaijiang.

Stone pillars carved with Dragon patterns were erected around the Temple of Heaven. When the auspicious hour arrived, a Brazier was lit at the top of the stone pillars.

In the center was an incense table, on which were chicken, ducks, cattle, sheep, and pigs made of Jade.

The Imperial astronomer stood at the edge and was loudly reading out the merits Emperor Chong Ming had earned by governing the world over the years.

He praised the emperor’s reputation.

He chanted prayers and flattered her while praying for the country to be peaceful and the people to be safe.

The Emperor stood at the forefront. The moment the Imperial astronomer stopped, he looked into the distance at the sky.”l’m the human Emperor of heaven and earth, and I hereby pray for a gift from heaven. May the great Zhou be at peace, the country is prosperous and the people are at peace.”

The Emperor slowly read out the prayers for the sacrifice to heaven, and the civil and military officials knelt behind him.

After his Majesty finished reading, he burned the memorial in the incense burner.

The Emperor led the crowd to bow three times and kowtow nine times.

After paying their respects, the Minister of offerings led the people up to perform the sacrificial dance. Everyone’s faces were painted in various colors, and their faces could not be seen clearly.

The drums around them beat along with the ritual dance, creating a strange melody.

The Emperor, who was leading the crowd to kneel at the very front, moved and suddenly stood up.

“I beg for the heavens” instructions. Traces of evil gods have appeared in the great Zhou several times. The people of the great Zhou, from the Emperor to the Emperor, were all loyal to the gods and the heavens. Please have mercy on us and send down instructions to find the evil god and return peace to the world!” The Emperor shouted loudly.

The emperor’s voice had just fallen when the sun was high up in the sky at noon. A sudden clap of Thunder rang out on a sunny day.

The feather God suddenly raised his head and looked at the sky. A strange light flashed in his eyes.

“It’s an order from the heavens.” The feather God stepped on the tip of his foot and went up to the altar.

“Your Majesty, the aura of the heavenly Dao is leaking out. The aura of the heavenly Dao is everywhere, and the evil god must be in a weak state.” my guess was right. The evil god is in the capital, among the people here!

The emperor’s mind was greatly moved, and everyone’s faces actually changed one after another.

Knowing that the evil god was here, even the Emperor was heavily protected by guards.

“Your Majesty, don’t worry. That evil god was born and grew up in the capital. Although it is the incarnation of the evil god, I’m afraid it has not fully awakened.. However, I have a way to make him lose his mind and expose his identity!”
