C1430

Tuoba Rui felt the itch in his ears and turned his head, thus the two of them stuck their noses together, and could feel each other's breathing.

"Do you know how scared I am without you?" Tuoba Rui uttered in a low voice.

Hua Ruge hugged him back and said, "I know."

"Yes." Tuoba Rui leaned his forehead against hers and slowly closed his eyes.

"Tell me what you're going to do tomorrow." Hua Ruge asked.

Tuoba Rui did not reply, and only quietly leaned on her.

"You said I was sick of it." Hua Ruge teased in a low voice.

It was rare for Tuoba Rui not to fuss about it with her.

The two of them sat outside in the pavilion very late, but they spoke very little, only quietly interacting with each other.

Hua Ruge was not used to such romantic affairs, it was just that since Tuoba Rui did not speak, she could not say it herself.

When the two returned to her room in the evening, Tuoba Rui told her what she had to do the next day.

"It's that simple?" Hua Ruge was still not used to it even after hearing it.

Tuoba Rui looked at her and asked, "Why do you think it is so difficult as to split heaven and earth?"

"Even if it isn't, it must be very difficult. If it wasn't me, then it would definitely be Monarch or you, right?" Hua Ruge asked again.

"It's me, but it's not hard. Sleep." he said.

"Okay, but you have to be careful." Hua Ruge instructed.

Tuoba Rui nodded.

The two of them laid down and Hua Ruge leaned into Tuoba Rui's embrace: "Once this matter is over, we'll go out and play."

"Yes." Tuoba Rui replied, not in high spirits.

Compared to the danger of going out, he would rather stay at home with her.

Hua Ruge felt extremely safe in his arms. It was true that she hadn't had a good night's sleep these past few days, so she quickly fell into a beautiful sleep.

The next day, before dawn, the palace sent someone to invite her in. Thus, Hua Ruge woke up in a daze and began to dress up.

The nuns dressed her in court clothes. There were layers upon layers of them, but they were made of very light material. The silver brocade was embroidered with golden threads, and there was even a thin gold ribbon tied around her waist.

The brocade satin was covered by a layer of gauze, giving off a layer of immortal qi.

Hua Ruge's temperament was already very good, with her body and straight face, she had an imposing manner.

On the other side, Tuoba Rui also walked out. Today, he had surprisingly changed into a white robe, which gave off a sense of texture. Above that, with her extremely beautiful features and restrained expression, she looked like a statue of an ancient Greek deity, causing those who saw it to feel ashamed and inferior.

Hua Ruge's mouth slightly opened, and moved closer as he said, "Don't say it, you really look good in anything you wear. Let me take a good look."

As she spoke, she adjusted the angle of Tuoba Rui's head and observed him from various angles.

Tuoba Rui pulled down her disorderly little hand and said: "If you want to see it in the future, I'll let you wear it everyday. It's time for you to go out now."

"Are you for real?" Hua Ruge looked flattered.

Tuoba Rui did not answer, but watched as he pulled him towards the exit.

"That's not right, I'm not here. Who prepared these clothes for you?" Hua Ruge looked at him strangely: "You don't seem like the type of person who would prepare their own clothes."

"The Ministry of Rites has also sent you and me a set of clothes. They say it's for the sake of looking better." Tuoba Rui explained.

Hua Ruge looked down, and sure enough it was all white. When he raised his head again, he said: "I got it.

"What?" Tuoba Rui raised his eyebrows.

"Nothing, I like this idea." Hua Ruge laughed on the other side.

"State Advisor, you'd better not laugh." The gracious nanny behind him reminded him.

Hua Ruge coughed and said, "My kin is no good?"

"Just a smile from your family." The mama dared to ask.

"Then just now, what was I?"

"Your bandit who seems to have taken the lady of the stronghold." The mama didn't dare to say, as Tuoba Rui added from the side.

Hua Ruge wanted to refute her, but in the end, she only saw that the mama also tacitly agreed after hearing what Tuoba Rui had said.

"I ?" Hua Ruge now seriously doubted his own image.

Although she was resentful, she still showed a stern face after leaving the mansion. She looked at the people outside with a serious expression and lowered her head.

She got into the carriage and headed for the newly built altar.

The moment he stepped out of the door, the sky brightened. However, there were already many people gathered on the street and around the altar. It seemed that they had all heard the sound of the wind and had come to see the commotion.

The altar was surrounded by a tall wall, and it was also hidden by a formation array. These people wouldn't be able to see the altar from the outside.

When Hua Ruge arrived, a bright white sedan chair had also arrived. Looking at the runes carved on the outside of the sedan, one could tell that it was the High Priest Lan Bing'er.

After entering the door and getting off the palanquin, since they had already reached a place with no one around, the two of them no longer had to keep a straight face and just smiled at each other.

"Elder sister is so early today." Lan Bing'er laughed.

"Do you think that I wanted to send someone to urge them on so early in the morning?" Hua Ruge said with a bitter laugh.

"Big sister hasn't had breakfast yet, right?" Lan Bing'er took out a box from his spatial storage and handed it over to her: "A bowl of porridge and side dish that you had your servant cook for you early in the morning."

Hua Ruge took it and said: "You know me the best."

However, just as she finished speaking, an eunuch walked over and said: "Palace Head Tuoba, State Advisor, High Priest, Monarch and a group of civil and military officials are waiting inside."

"You really didn't give me any time at all." Hua Ruge said with a face full of resentment.

Lan Bing'er laughed helplessly: "Elder sister, you should eat it after it's over."

"That's the only way." Hua Ruge kept the food, thinking that he would meet the officials later, his face became stern again.

Before them was the road leading to the sacrificial altar. On both sides of the road stood the officials of the civil and military officials. After passing the road, one could only see a hundred and eight steps. From below, one could not see the entire sacrificial altar.

Hua Ruge silently praised the altar from below. At the moment, Jun Tianxia was standing in the middle of all the officials, so he did not go up.

"I pay my respects to the Monarch." Hua Ruge bowed, but Lan Bing'er nodded.

"No need for formalities." Jun Tianxia said, then said to Lan Bing'er: "Thank you, Great Priest."2

Lan Bing'er nodded slightly: "As a Da Yu Priest, this is what I should do."

After saying that, she slowly walked towards the staircase.

Hua Ruge knew what she wanted to do. As the High Priest of the Da Yu, his most important role was to communicate with the heaven and earth. Only her existence could cause the Great Yu Dynasty to gain the approval of the heaven and earth.

And because of this, Lan Bing'er had the same status as Jun Tianxia, and was slightly higher than him, just that he did not wield power.

As he watched Lan Bing'er walk onto the stage step by step, and felt her extraordinary and calm aura, Hua Ruge very gratifyingly said to Tuoba Rui who was at the side: "The little girl has grown up."
