Martial Arts From Bandits

  Chapter 291 Ancestral Worship Ceremony! (1 for subscription)

  Zhang Jing sat in the yard with a cup of hot tea in front of him.

   Tomorrow,

  The ancestor worship ceremony is tomorrow.

   Zhang Jing's mood was very relaxed, and when he got to the front, he didn't feel as tense as before.

   The ancestor worship ceremony has been prepared for so long, and the high-level officials in Dongqi must have prepared for it.

   And Zhang Jing is just a small commander of the Imperial City Department.

  The stations are all far away, so it is difficult to affect him.

  Furthermore, Zhang Jing would not rush upwards so stupidly.

   All he can do is to protect himself and reap some benefits by the way.

  Eastern Qi Yongning sixteen years, eighth day of September.

  The place where the ancestor worship ceremony was held was in the imperial temple of the Eastern Qi Dynasty.

   What is enshrined here are the tablets of the ancestors of the Eastern Qi Dynasty. As for their mausoleums and the mausoleums of some founding heroes are outside the capital.

  The Imperial City Siwu Guards under Zhang Jing guarded the outermost circle.

   As for the inside, it is guarded by the personal guards in the palace.

  Rows of personal guards are all wearing golden lock armor.

  Baojia shines brightly under the sunlight.

   Gives people a very majestic feeling.

  These personal guards were selected layer by layer by the elites of the Eastern Qi's frontier army and Zhenwusi.

   There are not many people, but all of them are good players.

   Moreover, the figure is very tall and straight.

   At least Zhang Jing searched around, and found no ugly or short people.

   Among Zhang Jing's subordinates, the Imperial City Siwuwei, there were indeed many people mixed in as Han Qianshu said before.

  Wang Teng was still reporting to him, but he suppressed them all.

  Also told Wang Tengyao, talk less, do less, just pretend nothing happened.

   Zhang Jing did not wait outside, but walked in following Han Qianshu's footsteps.

   This is not what he meant, and no one had informed him before.

   It seems that it was just Han Qianshu's temporary idea.

  Han Qianshu led Zhang Jing through several layers of guards before stopping.

  Because, they've got to the place.

   This is also the first time Zhang Jing met the emperor of Dongqi "Li Ye."

   When they were some distance away, Zhang Jing raised his head and took a look.

  The appearance is indeed very majestic, and it may be like this when you have been in a high position for a long time.

  Zhang Jing didn't look at it for a long time, but just took a small look, and only remembered that Li Ye's nose was relatively tall.

  Zhang Jing heard that the emperor of Dongqi also had a cultivation base, but he was not very strong.

  Peak to the sky, that is, first-class peak state, definitely not innate.

  Although the emperor claims to be the son of heaven, he is just an ordinary person without breakthrough.

   Moreover, according to the records in the records of Zhenwusi, the emperor basically never lived to be over a hundred years old.

   At most, he was eighty years old, and at the shortest, he died in his fifties.

   You must know that the emperor is not an ordinary person, he will take some nourishing elixir every day to prolong his life.

   Among them is the spiritual tea that the second prince gave Zhang Jing before.

  It is very precious to the people below, but to the emperor, it is nothing.

   But even so, the life of the emperor is not long.

   There are many people in the world who have speculated about the reason for this.

  However, the most widely spread is that, as a mortal, to suppress the national destiny of a country, the backlash is the culprit.

  This kind of rumor, Zhang Jing thinks there is some credibility.

   After all, in this world where a martial arts peak can suppress a giant mountain with one hand, anything is possible.

   "Commander of Zhenwu Division, Han Qianshu, see Your Majesty," said Han Qianshu, bowing slightly.

  With his strength and status, he has long been allowed to meet in person.

   "Zhen Wu Si Zhang Jing, see Your Majesty."

   Zhang Jing knelt down on one knee, and Han Qianshu didn't worship because of his strength and status.

  However, Zhang Jing did not, so he had to worship.

   "Han Aiqing, please stand up," Li Ye raised his arm falsely.

   "Thank you, Your Majesty," Han Qianshu nodded slightly, then stood aside, and Situ Qi nodded to him.

   "Zhang Jing? Are you the Zhang Jing who was ranked No. 11 on the Dragon and Tiger Ranking before?" Li Ye's deep voice came.

   "Returning to Your Majesty, it is the humble minister," Zhang Jing arched his hands, looking down with his eyes.

   These etiquette mirrors are specially reviewed, so there is no panic.

   "Not bad, not bad, young and promising, Han Aiqing, your Zhen Wusi is really full of talents," Li Ye said with a laugh, looking at Han Qianshu beside him.

   "It's all thanks to His Majesty," Han Qianshu cupped his hands.

  Li Ye nodded and said softly:

   "Okay, get up."

   "Thank you, Your Majesty," Zhang Jing heard the voice, stood aside after getting up.

  The second prince and several other princes stood together. When Zhang Jing turned his head, the two looked at each other.

   However, no words were spoken.

  This occasion is also not suitable for reminiscing about the past.

   This time the ancestor worship ceremony was officially just a formality.

  So those who came were basically officials from the Ministry of Rites, and the rest were resting today.

   After all, there are only a small number of civil servants with cultivation base. If a big war really comes, I am afraid that there will definitely be heavy casualties.

   Soon, no one came anymore.

  Like the commanders of the four domains, they didn't come here, because their mission is not here.

  The altar in front of the Jongmyo Temple has been set up, and there are two candles on it.

  On the table, there are heads of pigs, cows, and sheep.

  These three things are for the three sacrifices, in addition to the five fruits.

   The officials of the Ministry of Rituals are currently in charge of all kinds of messy etiquette.

  The most noticeable thing is an old man in priestly robes in front of the altar.

  The old Taoist has white beard and hair, and a rosy complexion, which looks like a fairy.

  Water vapor and mist rose all over his body, and between waving his hands, there were some tiny grass sprouting in the cracks of the bluestone slabs under his feet.

   Zhang Jing narrowed his eyes, he naturally didn't recognize the old man.

  However, the young man with the things next to the old Taoist seemed familiar to him.

   Looking carefully again, Zhang Jing's eyes suddenly shrank, and he saw the face clearly.

   Wasn’t that young man shouting something earlier: “I don’t eat shit, hey, is it just a white fool playing?”

   "Why is he here, or does he just look alike?" Zhang Jing was thinking.

   This is just incredible.

  Although the old man Zhang Jing didn't know him, he could feel his status and strength.

   To be invited to preside over the sacrifice, he must be a great master.

  The disparity in status between the two is too great.

  Silly Bai seemed to feel something, and suddenly turned his head to look at Zhang Jing.

   Then, he grinned.

  Zhang Jing's eyes were indifferent, but there was a storm in his heart.

   Just with such a smile, Zhang Jing has already confirmed that the man is the white fool.

   Waited for a long time,

  The old man at the altar came forward, bowed slightly to Li Ye and said:

   "Your Majesty, the auspicious time has come, and we can begin."

   Li Ye nodded, then stood up.

  Uncle Duan stood in front of him and said loudly:

   "Ancestor Worship Ceremony, Kai."

  Afterwards, Uncle Duan waved his hand, and the sky was originally clear, but at this moment, there were clouds churning.

  Those clouds turned into various rare and exotic beasts.

   There is a golden dragon, a colorful phoenix, a red phoenix, and a radiant white deer.

  Shu Botong's move can be seen not only by Zhang Jing and others in the imperial city, but also by ordinary people outside.

  The ancestor worship ceremony is a grand ceremony for the members of the royal family, but for those ordinary people, it is also one of the few festivals in a year where they can rest.

  Especially because it was brought by the uncle, it was already considered a fairy trick to them.

  Han Qianshu frowned slightly, and fixed his eyes on Uncle Duan. This method definitely exceeded the scope of the Jindan realm.

   Anyway, he can't do it.

  That person has combined his own power with the vitality of the heaven and earth, and manipulated the mighty power of the heaven and earth with his own power.

   The understanding of innate vitality may have reached an astonishing level.

  It is indeed worthy of the title of immortal.

  He also saw this person for the first time today, guessing in his heart that it might be foreign aid invited by the emperor.

  It is to deal with the White Lotus Demon Sect at that time.

   "Is this just going through the motions?" Zhang Jing was full of question marks.

  If this is just going through the motions, what will the grand ceremony that takes place every ten years look like?

  Could it be more shocking than it is now?

  Of course, it may also be that Zhang Jing is a little ignorant and has never seen any big scenes.

   After all, it just came from a small place.

   "Couldn't this be a human immortal master in the realm of heaven and man?" Zhang Jing had such an idea at this time.

   This is the first time he has seen such a method, so he will inevitably be a little surprised.

   Zhang Jing squinted his eyes, he was sure that he had never heard of such a number one figure as the old Taoist.

   "Invite the seal of the ancestors, kowtow to the ancestors, and recite the sacrificial rites."

   An official from the Ministry of Rites said loudly.

  After a series of tedious rituals, someone held a jade box made of spiritual jade with both hands and placed it in the center of the altar.

  After that, the official opened the jade box behind him, took out a stone seal respectfully from inside, and took the jade box away.

  The moment Zu Xi took it out, Zhang Jing felt that the beads on his body from Taoist Wusheng were a little hot.

   Obviously, he has already felt the strong dragon spirit in it.

  As for Zhang Jing getting the beads from Huang Jiugong, he still didn't respond at all.

  It seems that this is indeed just an ordinary bead.

   Zhang Jing squinted at Zu Xi.

very common,

   Really ordinary.

  Only some rough patterns are carved on it, nothing else, just like a very common stone on the side of the road.

   It's just that Zhang Jing knows that this stone is not ordinary.

   This is the seal used by the founding emperor of the Eastern Qi Dynasty.

  Although the appearance is simple, it bears the spirit of the dragon veins of the Eastern Qi royal family and the Li family.

  That's why it is called Zuxi.

"bye."

  The official of the Ministry of Rites shouted loudly.

  Li Ye took a few steps forward and began to salute directly.

  A large group of people behind him also bowed down, without exception.

  The same is true for Zhang Jing, except that Zhang Jing's gaze has been fixed on Zu Xi, and then turned to Emperor Li Ye.

   Even that white idiot seems to have a force to make him follow suit.

   Thanks to the book friends, I rewarded 1500 starting coins for pure milk.
