The emperor's intention was obvious, and they could not refuse.
The princes looked at each other, no matter who they originally favored. At this moment, they could only smile bitterly, raise the glass in the direction of the emperor, bend down slightly, and drink it all in one gulp.
The emperor's order cannot be violated, and they obey it!!
... Yunlong Xuanyu paid his respects in a circle and returned to the imperial palace to resume his duties. The emperor rewarded him with a jug of wine and sent him back to his seat.
All this was seen by everyone. Except for the fifth prince who changed his expression slightly, all the other princes were very calm. The eldest prince got out of this whirlpool early, and others couldn't pull him away even if they wanted to.
The sixth prince surrendered to Yunlong Xuanyu early, but the fifth prince... His thoughts have always been strange and inexplicable, and he has always claimed to be from the imperial sect. But no one would think that he had no calculation for that position.
In the middle of the banquet, the emperor left the banquet with his imperial concubine early. Before leaving, he issued an imperial edict and asked the fourth prince Yunlong Xuanyu to worship his ancestors on his behalf. With what happened before, it is not so surprising now.
.
With the Third Prince's matter in front of him, the more thoughtful he is at this time, the more honest he will be, for fear of offending someone's eyes again.
…………
Because they had to worship their ancestors, after the palace banquet, all the other princes left the palace. But Yunlong Xuanyu took Xiao Ling back to Xuanyan Palace!
At night, the two people lay on the bed in the main hall of Xuanyan Palace, hugging each other tightly.
Nervous, excited, worried, sad... all kinds of complicated emotions hit Yunlong Xuanyu's heart. As a prince, he naturally knew what everything tonight meant. It meant that everything he had asked for for so many years would finally come true.
He tasted it. However, he couldn't show it. All his thoughts had to be kept in his heart. He couldn't talk to anyone except the person in his arms.
But today, she was tired, and so was he.
"Don't think too much." Xiao Ling comforted him. "Stay steady!!"
Yes, you have to be steady. In this last moment, you must be steady.
Before dawn the next day, Xiao Ling personally dressed up Yunlong Xuanyu and sent him out. Ancestor worship is a serious matter, and women are not allowed to participate. Only then did Xiao Ling realize that the Fu family was also going to worship their ancestors on this day.
She, the head of the family, led all the elders together...but probably because she didn't have a sense of belonging, she simply forgot about it.
And Taoyuan and Anshou did not remind them!
"Anshou." Thinking of it at this moment, he naturally wanted to ask, "How to carry out ancestor worship on the island?"
"The great elder will temporarily act as the head of the family."
That's good! Xiao Ling breathed a sigh of relief. The Fu family couldn't survive without her. She immediately felt that the burden on her body was less!
At noon, the ancestor worship was over. Yunlong Xuanyu was so tired that when he came back, he asked people to bring hot water, bathe, and food. After eating and drinking, he finally recovered. Then he took out another imperial edict, and unexpectedly
It's for Xiao Ling.
Today men worship their ancestors, but tomorrow it will be women who worship gods. The emperor has decreed that she should lead the wives of the clan and preside over the sacrifices.
"You will have to suffer tomorrow. You will burn incense and bathe in the morning, but you can't eat yet. Fortunately, the sacrifice to the gods is in the palace, so you don't have to go out..." Like today, he not only has to leave the palace, but also climbs a mountain. He is a martial arts practitioner and is not afraid of climbing mountains.
, but the wind in the mountain is really terrible. It snowed again last night. When climbing the mountain, several people fell into the snow cave. Fortunately, no one was injured or injured.
"Does the Emperor want us to practice in advance?"
