On August 12, the 22th year of Emperor Wende, the first thing Wende Emperor Yin Ruo did when he came to the court was to ask the ritual officials to start preparing for the enshrinement.The ceremonial officials and bachelors in the imperial court then began to have heated discussions on issues ranging from the sequence of ceremonies and altar architecture to the shape of jade books and emperor's clothing.The preparations for a spectacular Zen ceremony began like this. Yin Ruo also seemed to have forgotten that he had said that everything should be kept simple. As he asked for more and more things to prepare, the treasury that finally became rich Suddenly it was empty again.

On August 12th, the 25th year of Emperor Wende, after three days of preparation, Emperor Wende brought thousands of concubines, imperial relatives, civil and military officials, and eunuchs from the harem, protected by hundreds of imperial guards. Chang'an set off in a mighty way and went straight to Mount Tai.The local officials of the places they passed along the way welcomed the emperor and his Fengchan team with heavy ceremonies in order to curry favor with the emperor. It took six months to stop and go like this. On the fourth day of the lunar month, I came to the foot of Mount Tai.

On February 13, [-]th year of Emperor Wende, the Taishan Conferring Ceremony officially started, and a large number of local people at the foot of Taishan also gathered.Since the emperors of all dynasties did not allow women to climb to the top of Mount Tai, all concubines such as Xiao Yuer and other court ladies were left at the foot of Mount Tai, while Emperor Wende Yin Ruo took the cultural relics and officials to the top of Mount Tai to prepare for sacrifices. day ceremony.Under the auspices of the ceremonial officer, the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven officially began. When the enthusiastic Yin Ruo was about to worship the heavens, the clear sky suddenly became cloudy, and then it began to rain.All of a sudden, Feng Chan's team started to become uneasy, and the people at the foot of the mountain started talking one after another.

Yin Ruo was also at a loss for the sudden change. At this moment, the etiquette official in charge of Fengchan etiquette had an idea and said to everyone: "The second is that the heavens were moved by the emperor's actions, so they shed tears."

A smile appeared on Yin Ruo's face when he heard what the ritual officer said, and the rioting crowd fell silent.A sudden rain was said by the etiquette officer to be an auspicious omen again.However, although the words were concealed, it was still raining, and the Fengchan ceremony could not be carried out. Everyone could only set up a tent on the top of Mount Tai and wait for the rain to stop before performing the Fengchan ceremony.

The situation at the foot of the mountain was much more lively than that at the top of the mountain. The local people had long heard of Queen Chengtian's reputation, and after Yin Ruo led all the civil and military officials up the mountain, they flocked to watch.The imperial guards responsible for the protection were about to drive the people away, but Xiao Yuer stopped them.Xiao Yu'er asked the leading officer of the imperial guards to organize all the people who had sequenced to watch Feng Chan's highlights together.Seeing such a benevolent queen, the common people applauded and applauded, and calmed down to watch the Fengchan ceremony without being crowded.

After a while, the rain started to fall, and the people who had been quiet just now started to riot again.Xiao Yu'er didn't panic about the sudden rain, but tried her best to appease the troubled people.Following the sentence of the ceremony official on the mountain, "The second is that the heavens were moved by the emperor's actions, so they shed tears." When it was heard, the people at the foot of the mountain became quiet.They started to spontaneously set up tents for Xiao Yuer and all the concubines, and even the common people rushed home to fetch some food for Xiao Yuer and others to eat.

"The common people's home is simple and light, and the queen can use it!" The common people said to Xiao Yu'er, holding food in their hands.

"I accept everyone's wishes, you should keep these things for yourself!" Xiao Yu'er knew that the people's lives were not easy, so she couldn't bear to eat the food sent by the people.

All the people refused to leave and insisted on leaving the food, so Xiao Yu'er had no choice but to accept it. "Thank you everyone." Xiao Yu'er ate the food sent by the common people, and also shared it with everyone.The people were willing to leave.

At noon the next day, the rain finally stopped and the sun came out of the clouds.The ceremony of enshrining the Zen continued. After the sacrifice to the sky, Yin Ruo led the crowd to the hill under Mount Tai to remove the ground and sacrifice the ground, and then read out the jade book that recorded the emperor's great achievements.
