It's three o'clock.
The golden warm sun shines through the sky and through the clouds over the Chengyun Hall.
This adds a bit of sacred charm to the already tall and majestic Chengyun Hall.
Lu Wensu, who was wearing the official clothes of Prince Yan's Palace and more than twenty subordinate officials, led a group of dignitaries and their families through the carriage gate slowly.
Walk slowly towards the large square in front of Chengyun Hall.
"Female family members, please move to the right side of Chengyun Hall."
Lu Wensu stopped in front of Chengyun Hall and slowly turned around to face the female relatives in the crowd, cupping her hands slightly.
The words are over.
Zhu Wanning took the lead in moving her steps and walked unhurriedly towards the right side of the main entrance of Chengyun Hall.
Qifang Yi took a step forward.
The group of young women, whose faces were also covered with white gauze, followed closely, not to be outdone.
It seems like they are deliberately competing.
A group of young women covered in white gauze walked forward with more dignified steps and more elegant steps.
The temperament that a woman from a wealthy family has cultivated since she was young is fully revealed at this moment.
After more than a hundred breaths.
A group of female relatives of high-ranking officials moved to the right side of Chengyun Hall, and finally stood on the square on the right side of Chengyun Hall.
Just by standing there, everyone can see his family upbringing and many other inner qualities.
At the same time, a group of dignitaries consciously moved to the left side of Chengyun Hall without Lu Wensu's explanation.
After everyone has completely established their feet in the huge square in front of Chengyun Hall.
Four figures, two in front and two in back, slowly walked out from the main entrance of Chengyun Hall.
The first two are Sun Daohua, the governor of Shanggu County, and Pang Wenze, the governor of Yuyang County.
Behind them are Zhu Huaimin, the old man of the Zhu family, the first aristocratic family in Shanggu County, and Qu Ruian, the contemporary head of the Zhu family, the first aristocratic family in Yuyang County.
"We pay our respects to Commander Sun and Commander Pang."
As soon as these four people walked out of the main entrance of Chengyun Hall, all the dignitaries standing in front of Chengyun Hall bent down and saluted.
"You don't need to be polite." Sun Daohua and Pang Wenze looked at each other and waved their hands slightly: "The auspicious time to present the Buddha's bones and relics has arrived at the past half hour, so please be patient."
After finishing speaking, Sun Daohua, Pang Wenze, Zhu Huaimin, and Qu Ruian slowly walked down the steps and stood in front of everyone.
In fact, there was no need for Sun Daohua to remind him that all the dignitaries did not dare to make a noise in front of Chengyun Hall.
Although Xu Yi rarely appeared in public as Yandi.
But how can there be a wall that is airtight in the world?
Zhu Jianeng inquired about Xu Yi's deeds in Guanzhong disaster relief from Chang'an, the capital.
The rest of the dignitaries can't find out?
The information obtained by the dignitaries may not be as detailed as that obtained by the Zhu family.
But it is enough for ordinary dignitaries.
What's more, Xu Yi's various methods since he became a vassal have all reminded the dignitaries in front of them who is the real king of Yan.
Not to mention the construction of a nursing home, which gave the old soldiers a place to rely on, and gained a lot of fame in the Yan region, as well as the 21,000 strong soldiers stationed in Wang Daying.
Just the incident of going to Luo City was enough to shock every dignitary present.
Isn't it the case of Ji Kai, the hereditary and irreplaceable Duke of Zheng, who suffered a loss in Xialuo City?
Among all the people in the world, who can understand the whole story of this matter better than the people of Yan?
...
...
It's past half time.
"Dang~dang~dang~"
Several powerful and long-sounding bells slowly sounded from the carrier door.
The hundreds of dignitaries and their families in front of the Chengyun Hall were all shocked when they heard the bell. Hundreds of eyes were focused on the wide-open main entrance of the Chengyun Hall almost instantly.
Tens of breaths later.
The bell gradually fades away
Scattered in the sky above Chengyun Hall.
The long-sounding bell soon dissipated.
A slightly quaint and pleasant sound gradually came from Chengyun Hall.
"Bronze chimes."
The moment she heard the slightly simple and pleasant sound, Zhu Wanning couldn't help but close her eyes slightly and quietly listen to the natural sound emanating from the ancient musical instrument.
As the legitimate daughter of the first aristocratic family in Shanggu County, she naturally has great attainments in musical instruments.
After more than a hundred breaths.
The simple and pleasant sound gradually dissipated.
Zhu Wanning slowly opened her eyes and looked quietly at the wide-open main entrance of Chengyun Hall.
One breath.
Two breaths.
Ten breaths.
One hundred breaths.
As time passed slowly, Bai Zhe's hands, which were hidden under Zhu Wanning's sleeves, couldn't help but shed layers of sweat.
However, his eyes were still looking at the wide-open main entrance of Chengyun Hall as usual.
Several dozen breaths.
Hundreds of armored men carried slender knives at their waists and held straight spears. They walked slowly and uniformly out of the Chengyun Hall.
Wait for a hundred armored men to stand on the steps on both sides of the main entrance of Chengyun Hall.
Four figures slowly walked out of the wide-open main entrance of Chengyun Hall.
See this.
Zhu Wanning's Bai Zhe's hands, which were already sweating, became increasingly moist.
As several figures in Chengyun Hall get closer to the main entrance of Chengyun Hall.
The tension in Zhu Wanning's heart became more and more obvious.
However, she is a true lady after all. No matter how nervous she is, her face and demeanor can remain in the most perfect state.
After more than ten breaths.
The four figures in Chengyun Hall slowly passed through the shadows and stepped into the golden warm sun.
These four figures are also arranged two by two in the front and two by two in the back.
Among the two people in front, the one on the left is a handsome man with extraordinary posture.
The man was wearing a nine-piece and nine-piece green dragon crown, and he was clearly none other than King Yi of Yan.
Next to him is a woman with beautiful appearance, soft temperament and dignity.
The woman was wearing a gold-embroidered dress with hundreds of flowers and butterflies, and an upper body with a jade-colored silver-patterned hibiscus and flowers.
The black hair on his head was gently coiled up by nine golden flowers.
There is no doubt that this woman is the Princess Yan who has never been seen in public - Wang Qiujin.
The latter two are one old and one young.
The old man held a rosewood treasure box in his hand. He was Zuo Shengyuan, Zuo Fengcheng, the flattering minister in front of Prince Yan's palace.
The younger one is Yang Xian'an, the Bo of Pingyi.
"We pay our respects to His Highness King Yan, and to his concubine Yan."
As the four people slowly walked through the main entrance of Chengyun Hall.
Under the steps of the main entrance of Chengyun Hall, hundreds of Yandi dignitaries and their female dependents all bent down to salute.
Xu Yi stopped on the steps, waved his hands slightly and said, "No courtesy."
"Thank you, His Highness King Yan."
Hundreds of people who were bending down to salute at the foot of the steps bowed again after hearing this, and then slowly straightened their backs.
Xu Yi stood on the steps, his eyes slowly scanning the hundreds of dignitaries below the steps.
While looking at it, he slowly said: "A few days ago, a strange phenomenon appeared in the sky above the palace. The golden Buddha's light refused to dissipate in the sky above the palace for a long time."
"At the same time, Gu Yu accidentally saw a figure in his sleep. The figure was bathed in the golden Buddha's light."
"He claims to be the Buddha who sat down in the golden body of Arhat Dharma Sea."
"This time I came from the west and wanted to go to the capital to promote Mahayana Buddhism."
"Unexpectedly, on the way, I felt the pity of the believers and Fahai Arhat was compassionate and could not bear the suffering of the believers, so I had to leave early."
"His real body happened to be in the land of Yan at the right time, so he entrusted his dream to me before leaving."
"Before I leave, I will give the Buddha's bone relics to me, so that I can present him as my emperor."
「
I hope that today I can find a remote place in the capital and build a seven-story pagoda to worship the Buddha's bone relics. "
"If the opportunity comes again in the future, he will definitely ascend to the pagoda and promote Mahayana Buddhism in the Great Zhou Dynasty."
Xu Yi slowly told the story he had compiled.
It is true that these words have spread throughout Juyang City through the mouths of the two brothers of the Zhu family, and have even been known to most of the people in Yan.
But rumors are just rumors.
The same words spoken by different people naturally have different levels of credibility.
as expected.
Xu Yi slowly said the speech he had compiled in front of everyone.
The hundreds of dignitaries of the Yan land who were under the steps all showed piety on their faces.
What's more, they frequently looked at the rosewood treasure box held in Zuo Shengyuan's hand out of the corner of their eyes.
After a while.
The rhetoric that has been compiled for a long time is gradually coming to an end.
From the corner of Xu Yi's eyes, he could barely detect the faces of hundreds of dignitaries under the steps.
Then he slowly spoke again: "Today, I invite you all to see off the Buddha's bone relics."
"May the Dharma Sea Arhat be recited on the thin surface of the Buddha's bone relics that I have carefully enshrined for three days."
"Bless my land of Yan to have good weather and good weather, and protect the people of my land of Yan from hunger and suffering, from severe cold, and to keep them full and warm!"
The words are over.
Hundreds of dignitaries from the Yan land all bowed down and bowed their hands.
"His Royal Highness the King of Yan is so kind. May Fahai Arhat bless our Yan land with good weather and good weather, and protect the people of our Yan land from being forced by hunger and suffering from severe cold, and may they have full bellies and warm clothes!"
Xu Yi put his hands behind his back and looked calmly at the hundreds of dignitaries who bent down and bowed their hands under the steps.
All of these people in Yan land are in charge of the people's livelihood in the land.
The only difference between these people is that some are in charge of a place openly, while others are in charge of a place secretly.
The fundamental reason why Xu Yi invited all the dignitaries to Prince Yan's Mansion to present the Buddha's bone relics today is nothing more than two reasons.
First, on the surface, he formed a good relationship with a group of dignitaries in the Yan region.
Second, he secretly warned the dignitaries in Yan land who was the real king of Yan land.
He invited Sun Daohua, Pang Wenze, Zhu Huaimin, and Qu Ruian into the palace in advance.
After that, the four people were ordered to be the first to walk out of the Chengyun Hall when hundreds of dignitaries gathered in front of the Chengyun Hall.
Isn't this behavior a way for everyone to announce their rebellion?
Even the governors of two counties and the first aristocratic families of the two counties are like this. Compared with these four people, how many pounds and taels do the rest dare to speak against a high-ranking prince?
If I put it more plainly.
That means whoever obeys me will prosper! Those who oppose me will perish!
The hereditary and irreplaceable Duke Zheng was a lesson learned to everyone present.
All the dignitaries who noticed this were shocked.
Don't say that Xu Yi is a person with a high status as a prince.
Even though he does not have the status of a prince, after seeing Xu Yi's various methods.
No one among the hundreds of dignitaries present dared to underestimate him.
Tens of breaths later.
All the dignitaries slowly stood up.
Standing on the steps, Xu Yi glanced condescendingly at the faces of every dignitary.
When his gaze swept across, no dignitary dared to look at him.
After his eyes swept across the face of the last powerful man.
Xu Yi looked forward and said slowly and loudly: "Please ask for the Buddha's bone relics!"
"Follow the order!" Zuo Shengyuan, who was behind him, heard the words and bowed.
Then he slowly opened the rosewood treasure box that had been held in his hand for a long time.
As the rosewood treasure box slowly opened.
A crystal clear Buddha bone relic, about the size of a baby's fist, is gradually revealed in the sunlight.
The strong sunlight near noon shines on the Buddha's bone relics,
It makes it seem as if the whole body is shining with golden Buddha light, which is sacred and inviolable.
: "Buddha bone relics!"
: "Oh my god! It's really the Buddha's bone relic!"
: "A miracle! It's really a miracle!"
: "How could Mr. Xun be so virtuous that he could have a glimpse of the Buddha's bone relics! This life is enough! This life is enough!"
: "Buddha appears! This is Buddha appearing!"
As the Buddha's bone relics gradually appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
It is difficult for a group of powerful people to maintain their own momentum.
Even the expressions of Sun Daohua, the governor of Shanggu County, and Pang Wenze, the governor of Yuyang County, changed slightly.
At the same time, the two of them looked at Xu Yi with growing awe.
The appearance of the Buddha's bone relic instantly attracted everyone's attention under the steps.
However, a gaze just glanced at the Buddha bone relic and then hurriedly looked away.
And that person is Zhu Wanning, the eldest daughter of the Zhu family, who is located on the right side of the main entrance of Chengyun Hall, her face covered with white gauze.
Zhu Wanning slowly moved her gaze away from the Buddha's bone relic, and then looked at Xu Yi, who was wearing a nine-stringed green dragon crown with nine chapters, imperceptibly.
At a glance, his cheeks under the white gauze became increasingly red.
Just when he forcibly stabilized his mind and unobtrusively withdrew his secretly looking eyes.
He suddenly felt a gaze flash past him.
Zhu Wanning's heart trembled, and she forced herself to calm down again.
He looked at the Buddha's bone relic again.
At the same time, the corner of his eye looked invisibly in the direction where the gaze had just come.
At a glance, Zhu Wanning's mind, which she had managed to stabilize, became slightly flustered.
The gaze that flashed across her just now belonged to none other than Princess Yan, Wang Qiujin, who was sitting next to Xu Yi.
"She...she...she..."
Zhu Wanning was a little flustered, and even the extremely simple thinking in the past became a big problem.
After more than ten breaths.
Zhu Wanning once again forced herself to calm down.
Out of the corner of his eye, he looked at Wang Qiujin quietly again.
After seeing Wang Qiujin slowly looking at several young women not far away who were also covered in white gauze.
Zhu Wanning lowered her eyelids slightly in thought.
"His Royal Highness King Yan and the princess got married in May this year."
"More than five months have passed so far."
"Of course, the princess still has a flat belly right now."
Zhu Wanning lowered her eyelids slightly and thought secretly in her heart.
After a while.
Another glance glanced at her.
It was different from Wang Qiujin’s fleeting glance just now.
The gaze that swept over him stayed on him for three or four breaths.
And his eyes were full of majesty.
The owner of that gaze was no one else, but Xu Yi who was on the left side of Wang Qiujin.
Seeing this, Zhu Wanning couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart, and her heart, which had gradually returned to calm, became panicked again.
